Is it possible that NEITHER major Democratic candidate is a racist?

57. Yes. It's possible but

it's not that simple.

I think Hillary is more than happy to benefit from racism, she has demonstrated such willingness several times. She may not, in her heart, be indifferent to racism, I don't know. It doesn't matter though, she's beholden to people that need racist structures to remain intact to suit their needs. Does that make her a racist? Arguably.

Bernie is just clueless, or he was. And he's changing that - I believe he is authentic. Does this make him a racist? Not in my eyes. He fumbled badly though, and many of his supporters are making matters far worse with their own racism.

As for the candidates themselves, I make a distinction between doing a racist thing out of ignorance and knowingly supporting structural racism.

Just one black woman's perspective.
