Considering how hard African Americans fought in 1960s to get
#CivilRightsAct and#VotingRightsAct passed - especially in Birmingham and Selma Alabama - it's not surprising they would collectively vet candidates well and be loyal to those they trust no matter how Media spins. -

No one said anything about the
#VotingRightsAct.. how can BLACKS & POC pursue happiness w/o the vote? Historically@GOP can't win elections w/o Suppression voterID, Purges, stealing mail in ballots, killing early voting & changing poll stations.

"Like LBJ - he's LBJ 2.0 - he's going to enact policies that will harm black Americans for the next 100 years"
#CivilRightsAct 1964#VotingRightsAct 1965 Do you need further assistance? Also: how did destroying#JimCrow#VoterSuppression "harm the black community"? -

After 2018, who expected the North Carolina GOP to do right? We’ve needed international election observers since the
#VotingRightsAct was gutted. Americans will have to step up and do it in 2020. White folks are putting up Confederate flags to scare voters.#ThisIsAmericahttps://twitter.com/AnalyticsEqv/status/1229082887267344384 … -
I've made zero assumptions about you. All I did was post history w receipts. Democratic party institutional racism is something that started to end on 1948 (Truman, D), up to

#CivilRightsAct = 56 years ago#VotingRightsAct = 55 years ago Also - setting aside the#MAGAmath brain-teaser - how did destroying#JimCrow#VoterSuppression "harm black ppl"? -
With a majority in the House and control of the Senate, a Democratic President Obama passed ACA. With a majority in the House and control of the Senate, a Democratic President we can undo
#CitizensUnited and redo#VotingRightsAct -
But
#HumphreyMondale did trade it for#Medicare,#Medicaid, the#CivilRightsAct, the#VotingRightsAct, a liberal#SCOTUS & other landmark legislation that really#MadeAmericaGreat. Wish we had them today. -

4/4 the

#liberals somehow manage to#ignore the FACT that#democrats fought FOR#slavery,#JimCrowLaws,#Segregation & that the#VotingRightsAct ONLY passed because of#Republicans. The HOME of#Racism in#America IS the#Democratic Party. -
