Activist and film-maker who has worked with Jay Z claims that the hip-hop star contributed “tens of thousands” of dollars to free protesters who could not pay their bail following anti-police brutality demonstrations in Baltimore and Ferguson, Missouri.

The activist, Dream Hampton, later deleted her tweets and called them “error-ridden”, but confirmed that Jay Z helped bail protesters out.

Hampton’s original tweets claimed Jay Z (given name Shawn Carter) and his wife Beyoncé helped supply bail money for protesters, and discussed the difficulties of organizing when

protesters are thrown in jail.

“I’m going to tweet this and I don’t care if Jay gets mad,” wrote Hampton, at 8:38am on Sunday.

“When we needed money for bail for Baltimore protesters, I asked hit Jay up [sic], as I had for Ferguson, wired tens of thousands in mins.”

Another tweet read: “When [Black Lives Matter] needed infrastructure money for the many chapters that we’re growing like beautiful dandelions, Carters wrote a huge check.”

She continued: “... and more stuff, too much to list actually, that they always insist folk keep quiet.”

Hampton wrote that the alleged donations were important when protesters were being held on exorbitant bail.

Hampton said Jay and Beyoncé’s contributions were “too much list.”

Hampton's tweets have since been deleted, but were screen grabbed by Complex.
