The dancing troupe commissioned by First Lady Dr. Jill Biden for a Christmas video are Black Lives Matters activists that promote far-left policies such as defunding the police.
Dorrance Dance, a tap dancing troupe from New York City, performed a ‘playful’ interpretation of The Nutcracker Suite through the halls of the White House.
The group openly support controversial activist group Black Lives Matter as well as advocating on their website for ‘prison abolition’.
The ‘take action for justice [and] change’ section of Dorrance Dance encourages readers to sign petitions in support of defunding the Minneapolis Police Department, defund and redistribute the NYPD and ‘get them out of public schools.’
Other suggested causes range from ‘more protection for Black trans women’ and ‘stop the illegal export of riot equipment to the United States from the UK’.

Additionally, the organization pushes website users toward the organization Critical Resistance, which ‘seeks to build an international movement to end the prison industrial complex (PIC) by challenging the belief that caging and controlling people makes us safe.’
The website also pushes visitors to join their local Black Lives Matter or Showing Up for Racial Justice (SURJ) chapters.
Black Lives Matter has drawn criticism for ‘mishandling’ its funds, including large swaths of donations made following the murder of George Floyd in 2020.
The organization in February 2021 said it had taken in more than $90 million in 2020 and still had $60 million on hand, but it remains unclear how that money is being managed or even where it is.
The Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation Inc, faced accusations of financial mismanagement after buying a $6 million LA mansion in October 2020.
Meanwhile, just 33 percent of Black Lives Matter’s accumulated donations of $90 million found its way to charitable causes, a shocking report released this summer stated.
