Bernie is so right about Economic Justice for all Americans and particularly for those who are the most oppressed. Your opinion is not shared by those who do not HAVE economic justice. It's fine for privileged people to deny those who are not so privileged, the same privileges they have, easy from a comfortable place where they cannot possibly relate to what it is like to be POWERLESS.
Money is power. The cops are killing POOR AAs, people who can't come up with a $200 bail and end up dying in a prison no one with MONEY would even be in.
Amazing to me the effort to deny AAs the same power, the power that goes with money, that those denying this is such an important issue, already have.
And you need to read beyond DU what AAs have to say about this. And every other minority.
I guess you don't think that women should get equal pay for equal work either because that won't solve sexism???
No, it won't, no one can solve hatred and stupidity but they can empower those who have no power and that is why Sanders is so right on this issue.
