Ten local chapters of Black Lives Matter have accused the national arm of the movement of undercutting their efforts to democratize decision-making, failing to provide financial transparency, and of lacking accountability.

Signatories of the joint statement, headlined “It Is Time for Accountability,” include local Black Lives Matter chapters in Chicago, Denver, Hudson Valley in New York, Indianapolis, New Jersey, Oklahoma City, Philadelphia, and Washington.
