Civil Rights Hero Clarence Henderson Backs Trump, Gets Dragged on Twitter

Excerpt:

Clarence Henderson, an African-American civil rights icon who staged the 1960 sit-in at a Woolworth’s lunch counter to protest segregation, got dragged on Twitter for endorsing Donald Trump.

Henderson was denounced as a sell-out and an “Uncle Tom” for supporting Trump during a CNN interview.

“How much is Donald Trump paying Clarence Henderson? asked one user. “This Uncle Tom fool has sold his soul to the devil.”

Another chimed in: “Clarence Henderson just negated everything good he did for civil rights. SMH!”

It’s racist to assume that certain people will vote a certain way because of their skin color.

Mr. Henderson’s critics should be called out for their racism.
