    African Americans literally represent just 1% of the senior staff members hired by Democrats in the Senate. This hire today should not have to be historic, but it is. It also needs to represent a turning point in how Democrats do business regarding staff hiring.https://twitter.com/ShaunKing/status/948209991659515904 …

    GREAT NEWS! Incoming Alabama Senator Doug Jones just became THE ONLY DEMOCRAT in the Senate to hire a Black Chief of Staff. This is the most important position on a Senate Staff. He is going to officially name Dana Gresham later today. pic.twitter.com/kxApgGtBvV

        The bait and switch of our Democractic party, ( I'm shouting) EQUAL RIGHTS, AFFIRMATIVE ACTION, VOTING RIGHTS, while secretly not hiring minorities after using their VOTES 2obtain their current power structure. U must understand that Whites no matter the party won't give up pwt

        I am delighted by this! (but didn't Mr. Gresham have a name before? Did his parents and teachers just call him Baby?)

        I'd hardly call this a turning point. More like an anomoly. The Democratic Party doesn't change because of one Senator.
