these are progressive black points not moderate black ones.

Bernie touched on payday lending (not elimination) And added medical debt removal so I was wrong the latter. He does have one pro black centric point he added in October/September


The anti militarization of police is a black progressive groundswell effort with tangible origination efforts in ga with hopes to call Out any black potential Vp candidates when needed. H.R.1556 - 115th Congress (2017-2018): Stop Militarizing Law Enforcement Act

progressive blacks got in the job training/placement centers in his infrastructures goals. Thats it.

Pair new infrastructure investments with new training programs. To help build the workforce that will build the new backbone of our country, Biden will work with Congress and the U.S. Department of Labor to fund new infrastructure job training programs, and support registered apprenticeships

enlighten me. What’s the term mean?

 

[Pressure]

I'm just waiting for Bernie Bros to get back on their policy talk instead of trying to shame people for votes.

It's amazing how poorly all those talking points from 2016 and 2017 have aged.

Yeah I’ve finally just put him on ignore. Dude claims to speak for black progressives like we’re not in this goddamn thread.

My statement was on Biden. I'm willing to bet if this was discussed with Bernie or Liz they would either debate it with reasons why they wouldn't do it or add it to their plans. Biden the photo-op, agree to whatever you want type and you falling for it hook, line and sinker

 

[John Reena]

LoL @ calling ppl republicans when all I seen in this thread is progressives calling older black Biden supporters “stupid”.
