Democratic presidential hopeful Julián Castro took aim at rival 2020 contender Senator Bernie Sanders on Sunday, criticizing him for not backing reparations for black American descendants of former slaves.
Making a comparison, Castro pointed to Sanders’ repeated promise to push through"Medicare for All" and debt-free higher education. Although Sanders has long been a prominent supporter of civil rights, even getting arrested during a demonstration with black Americans in the early 1960s, he has also consistently said that he does not believe reparations are the answer to address persistent inequality in the country.

Castro ain’t writing big checks for Bernie’s ideas, OR for Reparations. So who are we better off with? At least get what we can with Bernie. Advantage Bernie!
This song news and Castro polls at 1%. Tell the establishment attack dog to go eat a bone
Because it makes more sense to address inequality in general. Lift everyone up. Is the govt supposed to divvy up reparations based on how much black DNA you have? The US has a nasty past, it was allowed to fester for too long, and now it’s harder to fix
Like if Corporate Centrists will EVER do anything about reparations 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 🤣🤣TryAgain
Julian Castro is a Clinton foot soldier pretending to be candidate.
Just point me in the direction of a former slave and ill give them my year’s salary....
News flash: It’s being reported that there won’t be any money left for reparations after Bernie’s spending spree.
