Herschel Walker, the football star turned Georgia Senate candidate, is an animated caricature of a Black person drawn by white conservatives. Walker is what they think of us, and they think we’re big, ignorant, and easily manipulated. They think we’re shady or criminal. They think we’re tools to be used. The Walker campaign exists as a political minstrel show: a splashy rendition of what white Republicans think Black people look and sound like.

How dare Walker not conform to the animated caricature of a Black person drawn by white progressives.

Based on the perps the True the Vote folks caught via the drop box surveillance cameras illegally, feloniously stuffing ballots, yes, I do think that of a very organized group of black people.

As an Afro Heritage minority-minority, Hershel is a good and true American
There are no good and true Black Americans.

It’s not just Hershel Walker, it’s any candidate of any race that is not aligned with the left that’s an insult to the left.
