A high-profile social justice activist in Boston and her husband
used a nonprofit they founded to scam at least $185,000 from donors
who included a Black Lives Matter chapter and the local district
attorney’s office, federal authorities allege.
Monica Cannon-Grant and Clark Grant allegedly treated their Violence
in Boston organization as a personal piggy bank to pay for rent,
shopping sprees, delivery meals, visits to a nail salon and a summer
vacation trip to Maryland.
Cannon-Grant, 41, and Grant, 38, established the nonprofit in 2017,
the same year she made headlines for helping organize a “Fight
Supremacy” march in Boston following the deadly “Unite the Right”
rally in Charlottesville, Va.
In a 2019 interview, she boasted of having the personal cellphone
numbers of then-Mayor Marty Walsh, now the US secretary of labor;
the current mayor, Michelle Wu, who was a council member at the
time; and the local district attorney.
Democrats and BLM, peas from the same pod.
