What has bernie listed that would specifically help black people ?
ending the drug war/legalizing marijuana, because it disproportionately hurts black people
investing in inner cities, allowing the kids there to stay off the streets
Prioritizing public schools, which would clearly help the black kids living there
Significantly lowering the prices of prescription drugs, and medical care (we all know a family member struggling to pay the cost of prescription drugs)
Ending the prison industrial complex/private prison system (self-explanatory)

those would specifically help black peole

Those are clearly tangible

by "specifically", did u mean "only"

This is a black forum which consist of black voters, I don't care about Bernies agenda for poor people. Yes by specifically I mean only, I'll ask you again what has Bernie said he will do SPECIFICALLY for black people ?

By this argument would you have opposed the abolition of slavery because it would have also freed non black slaves? :ld:

This is a black forum, so for you to say u dont care about these issues, thats crazy


But to answer your question, i haven't heard a policy proposal that would only help black people.

But i have heard policy proposals for years from him that would help black people

Your argument is a deflection technique. You're lbasically saying you'll thumb your nose at policy that helps black people because it may also help others.

Here's a secret,you can't pass blatantly discriminatory laws based on race like this in 2019. It would either never receive a vote, would summarily be voted down, or rejected in the courts.


Tariq didn't explain this to y'all? :francis:

Not all black people are poor, Bernie is well within his right to help poor people that will absolutely benefit everyone which is cool that's politics. Now that we are done with that, what is Bernie going to do ONLY for black people.

I'm glad there's a HL section because man TLR doesn't know a damn thing on how the political system works :snoop: It's like they skipped Government class senior year of high school.

He does have policies that in theory should help Black people. What I am looking for is insurance that these programs will be applied evenly. Like I said in another thread, he specifically states that he will help out mainly white coal workers in West Virginia with training programs from the Green New Deal. I think he needs to better explain how these policies will help Black communities. For example: how the Green New Deal and other environmental policies will keep things like Flint from occurring in Black communities, and how it will create jobs for us. A lot of Black people want to hear things like that. Elizabeth Warren has done a better job than Bernie in doing this so far.

This is a bar that probably no politician is going to meet... everything proposed with be “disproportionately affecting black folks”

Health care, student loan debt, wealth tax, daycare stipends, etc.

I think Bernie will pack the courts, but we’re probably going to need 2 consecutive progressive administrations to reorganize the courts.

That’s why the reparations thing is so interesting. What’s to stop a white person with some black in them making a claim if it’s technically based on lineage? We know it’s bullshyt but is a conservative judge really going to bring that nuance?
