Not to mention that the last Black Republican Congressman elected from a Black Majority district, Oscar Stanton De Priest of Chicago (1929-1935) bitterly opposed FDR’s New Deal and Socialist welfare policies, pointing out that they would utterly devastate the Black community in breeding dependence.
