In yet another case of leftist-committed fraud, though fraud that this time occurred in a red state, the Department of Justice has alleged and revealed that a longtime Black Lives Matter activist and leader was engaged in a massive wire fraud scheme involving millions of dollars, and for which she could be punished with decades in jail time.
Announcing as much in a press release in which it described her role in the movement and the crimes of which she is accused, the United States Attorney’s Office for the Western District of Oklahoma alleged that Tashella Sheri Amore Dickerson, long involved with BLM even before George Floyd’s death, was accused of both wire fraud and money laundering.
Beginning, the press release stated that a federal grand jury has indicted her on charges related to both crimes, saying, “A federal grand jury Indictment has been unsealed, charging TASHELLA SHERI AMORE DICKERSON, 52, of Oklahoma City, with wire fraud and money laundering, announced U.S. Attorney Robert J. Troester.”
Continuing, it described her role in BLM and a sprawling network of leftist NGOs and non-profits. That section began by noting, “According to the Indictment, beginning in at least 2016, Dickerson served as the Executive Director of Black Lives Matter OKC (BLMOKC). As Executive Director, Dickerson had access to BLMOKC’s bank, PayPal, and Cash App accounts.”
Then, noting the other organizations to which it was connected and its tax status, the statement provided that “BLMOKC was not a registered tax-exempt organization”, yet still “it accepted charitable donations through its affiliation with the Alliance for Global Justice (AFGJ), based in Arizona.” Continuing, it noted that “AFGJ served as a fiscal sponsor” to the Oklahoma City BLM organization.
Through that partnership and partnerships with other leftist NGOs and non-profits, the section on its connections went on to reveal, it managed to raise nearly $6 million. The statement noted: “Beginning in late spring 2020, BLMOKC raised funds to support its social justice mission from online donors, as well as from national bail funds. In total, BLMOKC raised more than $5.6 million, which included grants from national bail funds, including the Community Justice Exchange, Massachusetts Bail Fund, and Minnesota Freedom Fund. Most of those funds were routed through AFGJ, as fiscal sponsor, to BLMOKC.”
Predictably, the money was not used as it was supposed to be used. While the cash was intended to support it in posting pretrial bail for those involved with the George Floyd riots, a damnable enough goal, BLMOKC instead used the cash for Dickerson’s personal spending: “beginning in June 2020 and continuing through at least October 2025, Dickerson embezzled funds from BLMOKC’s accounts for her personal benefit. The Indictment alleges Dickerson deposited at least $3.15 million in returned bail checks into her personal accounts.”

Dickerson allegedly used the cash to host trips to Jamaica and the Dominican Republic, buy huge amounts of luxury goods, get $50k in groceries delivered, buy a personal car, and buy real estate in Oklahoma City. Meanwhile, she filed fraudulent annual reports on toward what purposes the money was being spent.
So, she is facing the consequences, finally. The DOJ announced: “On December 3, 2025, a federal Grand Jury returned a 25-count Indictment, charging Dickerson with 20 counts of wire fraud and five counts of money laundering. For each count of wire fraud, Dickerson faces up to 20 years in federal prison, and a fine of up to $250,000. For each count of money laundering, Dickerson faces up to ten years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000 or twice the amount of the criminally derived property involved in the transaction.”
