Are Black Republicans Out Of Touch With The African American Community?
Black Republicans in Congress could be swept out of office on Election Day as a result of down ballot voting if Democrats win the White House.
While Black Republicans are typically not supported by African-Americans and Blacks are looking for greater representation on Capitol Hill, the ousting of minority GOP members from Congress – such as Utah’s Mia Love – could prove to be problematic from a diversification standpoint.
This interesting juxtaposition of race and policy led to an interesting debate during Wednesday morning’s edition of NewsOne Now revolving around the notion of Black Republicans being out of touch with their community.
