Black and Latino voters moved toward Republican Donald Trump in this year's presidential election, and some of the biggest shifts were among men under age 45, and that helped expand his margin over Democrat Kamala Harris.
Thank you for saying this. I noticed this in 2008 when Prop 8 was voted on in California but Black people (men in particular) are really the preferred scapegoat for when things go wrong. All this despite their negligible numbers. 10 million white women (from 20 million) could vote for something detrimental to society but let 10,000 (from 100,00) Black men vote for the same bad policy and somehow the story will be about the Black men.
This is an example of the so-called subtle bigotry that really isn’t so subtle.
