Of late, the “Progressive” wing of the Democratic Party has been advocating appealing to the Trump voter.
According to the above article, this is precisely what turns off some of the African American women. They don't appreciate being ignored while the “Progressives” want the Democrats wooing those who have shown for 50 years who they are.
Other issues close to African American women — good public education, criminal justice reform and jobs that lay a living wage.
Free college for all is a mantra that resonates with those who get past high schools. For those who live in poor areas where the quality of public schools in terms of available facilities equipment etc is poor, it should be obvious that the first priority should be to life all public schools to a level playing field.
Re criminal justice reform, these days, the Dems aren't even paying lip service to it.
And by the way, Perez hadn't met with African American women through June, while he had met with all other groups.
Get ready for Dems to keep losing if they continue down this path. Don't take anyone for granted.
