In a wide-ranging interview with Rich Valdés on Talk Radio 107.1, Autry J. Pruitt—CEO of New Journey PAC and nationally recognized conservative commentator—delivered a pointed analysis of the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement, its ideological underpinnings, and its recent Nobel Peace Prize nomination. Speaking with clarity, conviction, and the precision of a strategist, Pruitt positioned himself as a leading voice on political outreach, community engagement, and cultural impact.
Pruitt argued that BLM’s leadership and agenda fundamentally contradict the unity and advancement they claim to represent. Citing the organization’s own early mission statements advocating for the dismantling of the nuclear family and its founders’ self-described Marxist orientation, Pruitt warned that BLM operates less as a grassroots movement for empowerment and more as a political vehicle exploiting division and unrest—often to the detriment of Black communities.
As head of New Journey PAC—founded by James Golden (“Bo Snerdley” of The Rush Limbaugh Show)—Pruitt has focused on shifting Black voters from the Democratic “blue column” to the Republican “red column” through authentic, community-based engagement. He outlined the PAC’s disciplined, high-impact approach: producing over 50 targeted commercials on a modest budget, spotlighting everyday citizens rather than political surrogates, and fostering conversations rooted in local realities instead of partisan talking points.
Pruitt shared examples of business owners and residents directly challenging the destruction caused during protests, illustrating a growing disconnect between activist elites and the lived experiences of community members. He emphasized that successful outreach requires listening, empathy, and the ability to address specific concerns—whether related to public safety, education, economic opportunity, or cultural values—without resorting to party slogans.
By combining grassroots authenticity with strategic discipline, Autry J. Pruitt demonstrates the hallmarks of a high-level professional speaker: expertise grounded in experience, the ability to distill complex political realities into accessible narratives, and the persuasive skill to inspire action across diverse audiences.
