Bevelyn Beatty Exclusive Interview: Crossing Out BLM Street Murals, Morals, and More
Staten Islander interviews Staten Island’s own Bevelyn Beatty, recently made famous for smearing black paint over the Black Lives Matter street murals in Harlem, Brooklyn, and in Midtown Manhattan in front of Trump Tower.
But it’s easy for anyone to get the idea: Words have power and meaning, and Ms. Beatty, in a true act of civil disobedience, went right over those words “Black Lives Matter,” putting a line through the letter and symbolically through the ideas behind those letters.
As Bevelyn and her companions paint-rollered over the word “Black,” what remained was “Lives Matter.” Yes; lives matter. Black, Brown, White, and all other colors. Racist? Try defending that one.

Bevylyn Beatty Paints Over BLM
With a prayer and a smile, Ms. Beatty attacked the BLM murals, with black warpaint smeared on her face. Was she angry? Hardly. She didn’t do this with a heavy heart, but rather with a joy that she wishes to share with her fellow Americans, regardless of color or anything else used to divide us.
Ms. Beatty is one of Staten Island’s own, born in the former St. Vincent’s hospital in West Brighton. So, we’re very happy to welcome one of our own.
Staten Islanders, prepare to watch a video that shows Bevelyn in her true form, as always trying her best to Live Scripture. In her eyes, the Bible is a book that can be lived through and lived out in the world.
Her ministry, At the Well, is an international prophetic ministry centered on the Word of Christ. But it doesn’t end there.
Inspired while in jail by a prophetic elder woman who laid it all bare before her, Bevelyn has since been on a quest to fulfill her own Calling.
Ms. Beatty’s efforts include helping feed the homeless, ministering to heroin addicts in the street, protesting at abortion clinics, and more. Her prophetic ministry did not begin with painting over BLM. That’s just the latest act in a long line of meaningful activity centered in Christ, trying her best to express GOD’s love and compassion, but also fierceness and truth.
You may not agree with everything she has to say, but there’s no way you’ll miss that her recent social religious painting activism was by no means a random act of trying to garner some Internet fame, or a fit of temporary insanity, but rather just another step on a long path of facing her fears head on and strongly going forth into the world to bring her Truth.
Bevelyn sees a crisis unfolding, like storm clouds. And, it’s past the horizon, they’re literally overhead. Her answer? Turn to Jesus. Turn to GOD.
But that’s not enough. It can’t be merely reading the Bible or going to church, though Ms. Beatty encourages this. It has to be action, speech, and living that reflects understanding; there can’t be a schizophrenic existence where we have our faith compartmentalized in a neat little box, where it can’t touch our real lives.
We at Staten Islander News Organization know that some of our viewers are Christian. Others are Jewish. Still others are Hindu or Muslim. There are even a good number of atheists among our readership.
Because we’re objective, we draw a diverse audience. Among our readers, there are many viewpoints, many ideas of how one should live a life. But we can be sure that most want to live their lives in a meaningful way. Most want to be decent, moral people. We won’t necessarily agree as to what that means, but each of us wants to be our best. That much is true.
Anyone can come away from hearing this interview with true wisdom and insight. It’s going to be difficult not to. You’ll be forced to ask yourself some difficult questions.
You need not think like Ms. Beatty or share her faith, but it’ll be difficult not to be affected by the fire and love that burn in her heart, her love for her Creator, her love for her fellow human, and her willingness to stand up and stand out, if need be.
We welcome your comments, and only ask that you bring respect. We try not to censor anything, so don’t force us by writing any garbage.

You guys should check out the article at the [deleted] about Scott Labiaido. Pure venom they basically call him an attention hound. Yet again. Seriously take a look.
They are just suiciding themselves bc I for one am cancelling my subscription. This was the last straw. I advise other subscribers to send a strong message of GO AWAY and cancel too.
CANCEL THE [deleted]!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please don’t stoop to that level. You don’t need to cancel culture. Everyone is entitled to a mistake. I think it was wrong to say also but I hate the idea of just writing someone off on account of one thing they do.
Look, this paper and that one are different. Both serve different purposes. It’s not an either/or thing. On an island with over a half a million people O think there’s room for both.
Please Jesus protect this woman and her ministry. She is the answer we’re praying for.
This woman is straight up crazy. Nothing good in what she did.
There is a conspiracy to destroy BLACK male role models:
Look at the list:
OJ Simpson
Bill Cosby
Michael Jackson
Prince
and so many others.
How many aspiring young BLACK men are murdered?
[…] Staten Islander, in an exclusive interview, spoke with Ms. Bevelyn Beatty last week, providing Ms. Beatty with a platform to speak directly to the people of Staten Island. For nearly fifty minutes, Ms. Beatty spoke, giving her perspective on the Black Lives Matter movement, and telling the Black community of Staten Island to “wake up.” (See the article here: Bevelyn Beatty Exclusive Interview: Crossing Out BLM Street Murals, Morals, and More) […]
First of all, thank you for the info, and your point of view.
I could enjoy this blog page and most importantly this
information. At this time, Personally i think I ravage much too enough
time on the net, checking out rubbish, essentially.
This is a refreshing change from what I’ve known. Yet, I believe reading other’s ideas is a very important investiture of at least some of my weekly measure of
time in my timetable. It’s almost like sifting into the junk heap to obtain the treasure.
Or simply, whatever example is effective for you. Still, near
the laptop is most likely as bad for you as tobacco use and fried
potato chips. https://Massage-at-home-nj.blogspot.com/2010/11/couples-massage-at-home-in-nj-makes.html
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I really appreciate your efforts and I am waiting for your next write ups thank you once again. I’m not sure how I feel about this all. I am a left leaning person but I don’t know if BLM is beneficial or going to make things swing far right.
People can each and every one make use of studying more regarding ourself and
our overall health and wellness. Selected actions and exertion levels may possess great profit to
all of us, and we have to uncover even more info about them.
Your weblog seems to have presented priceless data that will be helpful to many different cultures and
individuals, and I actually value your sharing your knowledge in this manner. http://at-home-massage-nj.njmassage.info/at-home-massage/2017/03/pregnant-womens-massage-why-everything-you-thought-you-knew-is-wrong/
Great article! Thank you 🙂 https://sepmetrologie.com/team/jonathan-gagne/

I felt like your article was timely and relevant.
Thank you very much for writing this article; if More authors created time-worthy and intelligent musings, I gander we’d all be in a better situation. To me, I think we
should place our attention more on staying fit and
eating well and free from being always in front of the computer
or cell phone screen. Going outside (and not being glued to the cell phone all
the while, either) and living life with appreciation for the natural world, keeps people feeling sane and feeling joyous.
Philosophizing about deep philosophical memes is likewise an experience that can help us know ourselves. http://at-Home-massage-Nj.Njmassage.info/at-home-massage/2017/02/tim-tebow-foundations-2017-night-to-shine-at-the-bridgewater-marriot-had-kids-dancing-and-parents-relaxing/
