this AM Bernie co-chair @ninaturner w/ op-Ed in SC
“Biden didn’t just vote for bills designed to prevent black students from accessing white schools: in a series of personal letters he actively courted pro-segregation senators to support the legislation”
thestate.com/opinion/articl…
Op-Ed hed is also not subtle: “While Bernie Sanders has always stood up for African Americans, Joe Biden has repeatedly let us down”
You can see it from the script too, but seems like Sanders going into the final stretch on the attack (against everyone)
op-Ed has kitchen sink vibes:
“Biden facilitated the public degradation of Anita Hill, an esteemed professor already victimized by a powerful man.”
“Biden echoed former Pres. Ronald Reagan’s dishonest “welfare queen” language”
“Biden opposes Dem efforts to legalize marijuana”
political context here: Biden is dominating among African American voters per basically every poll.
Most candidates have tried to disrupt that appeal w/ lil success.
Kamala w/ busing but also Warren trying to build relationships w/ Black women, and others.
