The Black Lives Matters national group has a new executive to deal with its financial scandal: a woman who’s bungled her own finances.
Cicley Gay, 44, a non-profit advisor and flack named chair of Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation in April, filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy in 2005, 2013 and 2016, federal court records show.
Her most recent filing, from August 2016, showed Gay had more than $120,000 in debts, including owing $55,000 in student loans — from her time studying at Liberty University in Virginia and the University of Kansas — and more than $18,000 for leasing a Lincoln MKZ sedan.
She also claimed to have $7,000 in medical expenses and owed $8,000 to two Christian schools, according to the records.
The Atlanta-based consultant had to submit to court-mandated courses on managing her money, the filings indicate, and she completed one course on Dec. 15, 2016.
