A few days before President Trump’s Twitter rant against four congresswomen of color, a few thousand progressives gathered in Philadelphia to hear speakers exhort them to make race a central issue in the 2020 election.
“We’ve got to center racial justice,” Rashad Robinson, the executive director of Color of Change, told the Netroots Nation conference. Robinson told the audience that “racial justice is a strategy for gaining power and winning power.”
Robinson represents a left wing of the party that wants to confront Trump’s demagoguery on race and identity head on, not shying away from the topic.
“Democrats for years tried to both mobilize and engage black voters and voters of color and tried to avoid conversations around race with white folks, and it just didn’t work,” he told Yahoo News in an interview a few days after his Netroots speech.

I’m sure that’ll work just fine
If the Demonrats try to run a racial ‘justice’ campaign in 2020 they are doomed to failure. They might whip blacks into a frenzy, but they will turn off all but radical left white voters.
With any luck they will nominate Kamaltoe Hairass and she will lose 45 states.
PEOPLE OF DARKER
is
People of Color
Darker Racism from Democrats
is selling their bigotry and racism of Darker People
called People of Darker.
Not what Yahoo expected, I am sure.
Yahoo has always been interesting like that. Their reporting is as Leftist as anyone’s, but they allow comments, and oft-times they are quite conservative.
It’s a pretty darn good comment.
“if only we could dupe working class Whites into thinking we were with them....even as we demonize White men and western civilization and do all we can to discriminate against White people (particularly men) for everything from school admissions to government contracts to jobs.”
Nice try. The race baiting lib elites have been the ones doing the “distracting”. So their goal is to lie some more? Good luck with that.
““We cannot win … unless we build a real black and Latino and working-class white-folk coalition that can stand together,” he said.”
The stupid, it burns!
They’ll have to undo many decades of racial hatred THEY themselves created. LOL! They are actually blind to reality.
They’ve kept black’s anti-white hatred fueled since the 1960’s. Latinos think blacks are lazy. Blacks hate Latinos taking their jobs and talking Spanish so much. Latinos hate whites for taking their lands and think we’re pretty stupid. Whites know blacks and Latinos don’t like them at all, even after giving them so much out of their wallets in tax for assistance.
NONE trusts the other.
True. In my opinion the left is lucky that Liberalism is not as readily identifiable as skin color. This insanity would end quickly if they could be eyeballed as Democratics.

It is a well thought out comment.
It sure is.
Endemic racial inequality cannot really ever be remedied so long as minorities segregate them selves and eschew education and assimilation
Race had nothing to do with this latest kerfuffle. The left has no argument if they can’t pin it on racism.
This should be fun...
Partisan Media Shills update.
The Get Whitey strategy. Yeah, that’ll work.
