Indy native Jason Whitlock: Black Lives Matter is 'no different from KKK'; historian disagrees
INDIANAPOLIS -- Jason Whitlock is speaking out against Black Lives Matter, calling it a "cleverly marketed slogan that provides cover for extremists to undermine racial progress and bully American citizens to support Democrat politicians."
And that, Whitlock said, is exactly what the Ku Klux Klan was all about.
"Despite the sweet-sounding name, Black Lives Matter acts as a racial divider," Whitlock wrote in an email to IndyStar on Friday, "no different from the KKK."
Whitlock, an Indianapolis native and journalist at Outkick.com, known for his controversial takes on sports and race issues, went on Fox News Wednesday night with Tucker Carlson. In that interview he said Black Lives Matter and Antifa serve as the modern-day “enforcement arm” of the Democratic Party.
When asked by IndyStar to expound on his take comparing Black Lives Matter to the KKK, Whitlock said he preferred an email interview due to the "sensitive topic."
"The Ku Klux Klan was founded on Christmas Eve 1865 by Confederate soldiers dedicated to undermining the racial progress sparked by the Civil War and Emancipation Proclamation," Whitlock wrote.
Citing a History.com link, Whitlock talked of how it was at night when the KKK took part in terrorist raids against Blacks and white Republicans. He said they used intimidation, destroyed property, assaulted and killed in an effort to influence upcoming elections.
"Black Lives Matter and Antifa protests have primarily terrorized and destroyed property in (B)lack communities at night," he wrote. "BLM and Antifa have attempted to intimidate white Republicans. BLM protests have been violent and caused the assassination of law enforcement officers and other citizens."
Whitlock said he believes it is not a coincidence that "Black Lives Matter riots pick up during an election cycle and disappear after the votes have been counted."
Richard Pierce, a professor and historian at the University of Notre Dame, called Whitlock's comments a "provocative, inflammatory screed." Pierce, who studies twentieth century America and specializes in the urban experience of Blacks, told IndyStar he had no desire to break down point by point why Whitlock is wrong.
"Nonetheless, I will say this. The KKK rioters commonly wore hoods to camouflage their identity and mimicked confederate general Nathan Bedford Forrest's marauding practices honed during the Civil War," he said. "Their very anonymity added to their intimidation."
Black Lives Matter events, by contrast, are permitted events which take place under the protection of the First Amendment, he said.
"Protesters, prior to COVID-19 safeguard measures, were mostly unmasked," he said. "I've never seen a hooded Black Lives Matter protester."
Pierce added that Black Lives Matter protest marches correlate more strongly with events of inequality rather than the public election cycle.
Whitlock says his analogy comparing the KKK and Black Lives Matter is not far-fetched, nor is it hard to comprehend, "particularly for the mainstream media."
"My analogy is far more substantive and accurate than pretending the events at the Capitol on Jan. 6 were an armed insurrection analogous to Pearl Harbor and 9/11," he said. "Black Lives Matter, founded by self-described trained Marxists, has a stated goal of disrupting Western Civilization traditions and values."
Whitlock, in the past several years, has been entering more and more into the fray of politics.
In October, he had a sit-down interview with then-President Donald Trump at the White House, who asked him for advice in an upcoming presidential debate.
The interview aired on Outkick.com, a newly launched website that features Whitlock and Clay Travis, host of Fox Sports radio, and focuses on politics and sports.
Whitlock left Fox Sports in June, where he co-hosted “Speak for Yourself" on FS1 for four years alongside Marcellus Wiley. Before that, the Warren Central and Ball State graduate worked for ESPN.
Whitlock stirred controversy in 2018 when he said that in the immediate aftermath of the civil rights movement in the 1960s, the Democrats marketed liberalism as the solution to Black people’s problems.
“And liberalism now is like a cigarette. It’s been marketed to us the same as the cigarette — fashionable, sophisticated,” he said. “It’s supposed to be liberating but I think it needs a surgeon general’s warning: Hazardous to your families and all the values you were taught as a child.”
Whitlock said 95% of Blacks “are afraid to even admit that we have conservative values.”
