Four posts in a row on the front page of r/politics were about the exact same event: a protester questioning Clinton for her comments about "superpredators," a racially charged term about black crime, and asking her to "apologize to black people for mass incarceration."
Of course, Clinton supporters are guilty of doing this as well. They promoted, as one example, civil rights hero Rep. John Lewis's comments that he never saw or met with Sanders at civil rights protests — a shot against Sanders's past remarks that he protested segregation in the 1960s. (Sanders did protest; the question is just how involved he really was and how relevant that is to today's Black Lives Matter protests.)

In the middle of a $500-per-person Clinton fundraising event in Charleston on Wednesday evening, a young Black Lives Matter activist stepped out in front of the former secretary of state, turned toward the small audience, and held aloft a banner emblazoned with the phrase, “We need to bring them to heel.”
The protester, as she later explained, “wanted to make sure that black people are paying attention to [Clinton’s] record” by drawing attention to the racist rhetoric Clinton used in 1996, when she, as first lady, strongly supported the “tough on crime” method of governance, and successfully lobbied for a bill based on that method to be passed into law.
So what you are saying is that minorities should all either vote third party, Republican, or protest at the polls and not vote?Makes me
This searing cartoon perfectly explains how white Democrats are playing the race card

Yesterday, when Ashley Williams interrupted Hillary Clinton at a fundraiser event in South Carolina, she intended to make a point. Williams, a Black Lives Matter activist, wanted Clinton to apologize to black people for supporting mass incarceration in the 1990s and once calling gang members, "super predators."
#WhichHillary, which was written at the bottom of Williams' banner, became the single most viral hashtag on Twitter, accumulating over 250K mentions by 7:00pm EST. The hashtag became a global soapbox for both BLM activists and Bernie Sanders supporters. Hundreds of thousands of Tweets emerged, calling into question Clinton's record, not just on race, but also on Wall Street, Iraq, gay marriage, health care, even the negative campaign that she ran against now President Obama in 2008.
But it’s hard to believe she’s serious about fighting for racial justice unless you pretend her 2008 campaign against Obama never happened. If you remember that period, there’s good reason to believe today’s promises are nothing more than lip-service to a community she sees as key to winning the nomination.
Clinton is now attacking Bernie Sanders for having criticized Obama, trying to take advantage of Black folks’ desire to defend the president. But it was Clinton herself who waged an incredibly nasty campaign of attacks and smears against Obama, going far beyond mere policy disagreements. A quick trip down memory lane reveals that Clinton has a history of employing race in a divisive, cynical manner.
Dude, it's what they do, have done and are allowed to do by the black voters. this is my entire argument about the dems and the blacks. You got it right here ^^^this^^^. And you all support the fks. Again why all mostly black neighborhoods are mostly low income families, the left keep them there. INTENTIONALLY. they use free stuff to get their votes. Not many white democratic voters seem to mind cause they never mention it, until you posted this. Well I can't believe I'm going to put this in writing in here, but,Makes me

I don't think so, but go for it.Bernie will actually do something to lift people up w/ his stated platform as opposed to Hillary keeping them dependent on Dem Big gov't largesse
White people always display their ignorance when it comes to Malcolm. He only called them chumps for giving their vote automatically to anyone.Dot sounds like Malcolm X calling blacks "political chumps" for voting Democrat

Yes thats very different from what you claimed.White people always display their ignorance when it comes to Malcolm. He only called them chumps for giving their vote automatically to anyone.Dot sounds like Malcolm X calling blacks "political chumps" for voting Democrat
Yeah, that's so different from automatically supporting Democrats today, even a racist like Hillary or a KKK Grand Kleagle like Bobby Byrd

Yes its different. His chump comment was directed at critical thinking and not specifically the Dems. . It had nothing to do with the party. As you admitted it was only about getting something. Thats not party dependent.Yes thats very different from what you claimed.White people always display their ignorance when it comes to Malcolm.

No it isn't, Blacks have supported Democrats no matter how racist they were. Malcolm X thought they were chumps for supporting them without getting anything in return. Today's blacks -- not difficult to imagine Malcolm's opinion of people who not only got nothing in return, but were supporting people out to fuck them
They should AT LEAST question their leaders who throw their support behind some candidate
