Do not use Barrack Obama’s election, and especially Hillary Clinton’s nomination to erase the possibility sexism and racism are not factors in the experience of a African American women.

Please.

Kamala Harris hasn’t caught fire with the public, this is true. Racism and sexism aren’t the ONLY factors, but they definitely are there. She has been erased in a very specific way with the media. There are many factors. She is not the front runner with the larger Black community either. Joe Biden is.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
