There’s no good reason Bernie should be singled out for that-and I agree that he SHOULD support reparations-while Hillary-who was never walked the walk on antiracism in her life and who helped Bill stage a corporate-and therefore white supremacist-takeover of the Democratic Party-or Biden, who spent most of his political career appeasing white backlash types in his home state, even though he never needed their votes to get elected or re-elected-are given a pass.

Bernie ran this year on the most antiracist program of any Democratic primary candidate-all Biden had to offer was that he used to hang with Obama. Hillary didn’t say a damn thing about racism in 2016, and hadn’t in 2008.
