Women and minorities, especially Blacks, are never given the benefit of the doubt

there is much research on modern racism that addresses this issue.

It was true of Obama and HRC, it is true of Cory Booker and will be true of multiple other leaders who arise in the Democratic Party.

We must remember this and resist this at all times. The alt left cannot be allowed to take down more of our leaders.

(alt left = People who criticized obama non stop and voted for stein or Johnson or stayed home and think we should have awarded Bernie the nomination although he got 4 million votes less. People who call us neoliberals invested only in identity politics while ignoring the glorious WWC. That type of people)
