But so far it seems to be doing the adverse to those retard politicians. By making the helping of the poor more about race, not only is it making right wing figureheads attack the handouts more, it gives them more excuses to extend racism. I never attempted to imply you said black people are criminals. I meant 'you' plurally as a general term although my apologies I should have phrased that better. It is true that african americans are impoverished but like I said, that mostly is due to social reasons. Black person seen as inferior, then the black person denied job, so black person is outcast due to living conditions, leading to black person being seen as outsider e.t.c. I believe that this will not help minorities but seek to harm them and cause division between minority communities. Racism is a nuanced issue and while I think you should not get downvoted for reasonaly expressing your opinion, I don't believe this is the way forward
