Brown for CNN: Biden's affirmation of the status quo may unsettle black voters
Emory Law Professor Dorothy Brown's op-ed for CNN addresses Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden's comments at a NYC fundraiser. "Biden's remarks Tuesday were a sobering reminder of his checkered legislative history on issues affecting people of color," she writes. "So as he tries to win the Democratic nomination in 2020, Biden should be careful--not cocky, not defiant--about rhetoric that offends people of color. The black vote may be his to lose."
