Tell that to Ben Carson, a black man on Trump's transition team...This conversation has been going on in the black community for decades and comes from an understanding that voting is only the beginning, you must then go on and hold the feet of those you elected to the fire. If this conversation is "news" to you, you should get out more and mix with black folk, you don't really know many or much.
Why on earth would anyone in his right minbd want to mix with Blacks? What would they gain by lowering themselves?
