I want Bernie Sanders to talk about race

[Dems to Win]

31. Bernie does need to add to his agenda

I read through Bernie's 12 point agenda posted here by JackPine Radical and it sounded great. But a couple of posts by bigtree and others about POC concerns did get me to look at it again.

Bernie's agenda will definitely appeal to the Occupy Wall Street young people -- good job.

Bernie's agenda will fire up the Fight For $15 movement --cool.

Bernie's agenda will catch the attention of the Debt-Free Education and student loan forgiveness movement -- that's great.

But how will Bernie's agenda play with the #BlackLivesMatter crowd? Hmmmm. I do see a problem here. Nothing on Bernie's agenda addresses the bias and militarization of the police, which plays such a huge role in the lives of young POC. Even people lucky enough to have good jobs.

We need the #BlackLivesMatter movement as part of our coalition. I hope someone from Bernie's campaign is reading here and recognizes this gap, and fixes it.

Thank you for the post, BrotherIvan.
