EXCERPT:
MOODIE-MILLS: “Here is the thing. What Democrats need to stop doing is stop pandering to the white working class as if they’re the only ones that are part of the working class. This is the problem. When we get into identity politics — and we were told after the 2016 election, 'Stop talking about identity politics. That’s what lost us the election.' No. What lost us the election is constantly pandering to a class that isn’t on your side, that isn’t the future of this country, that isn’t the future of the party. What black Americans have shown time and time again is that they are the backbone of the Democratic Party, and yet receive none of the investment from it. So the idea is this. Let us stop pretending that white women and white men are going to save us from ourselves. They’re not going to. They’re always going to vote with their whiteness. That’s the reality.”
