And to @BernieSanders, we hear you over & over say “working class, which we understand. But remember: when MLK talked about democratic socialism, he was building a #PoorPeoplesCampaign focused on addressing poverty, racism & militarism.
We need to hear on every stage how your vision addresses poverty by name. Poverty & systemic racism together—not just criminal justice reform, but also voting rights, resegregation of schools, destruction of Native American lands, ecological devastation & the war economy.
Those who are responding, you can’t hear everything as an attack. We have had over 30 debates since 2016 & not one has focused like a laser on 140 million poor people or racist voter suppression, which hacked our system long before Russia.
