Les Raatz was quoted in the Law.com article, "Controversy Puts Cloud Over Companies' Donations to Black Lives Matter Nonprofit." The article discusses the Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation, which is separate from local chapters, whose leaders were revealed to have purchased a $6 million house with donated funds. Les postulates that companies that donated to the global network may face an optics problem, questioning, "Are they getting their bang for their buck, or are they actually creating perhaps a negative result if [their money] ends up passing to a charity that is in the end questioned?"
