According to Robert F. Kennedy’s official site, which is in essence our motto as well, every minority is a potential target, either for “destruction” or for “repair”, and Democrats are afraid they might lose their condescending dominance over blacks and Hispanics.
Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has become a prominent 2024 contender supporting reparations for the black community, making him stand out on this controversial issue. While President Biden has largely remained silent on the topic, Kennedy now officially advocates for directing federal funds to rebuild black infrastructure, including banks and businesses, alongside providing direct redress payments or tax credits. He also emphasizes that communities targeted for destruction during Jim Crow and other periods of persecution need to be specifically targeted for repair. Kennedy also endorses development projects that benefit everyone, reducing potential polarization.
Kennedy, a 69-year-old independent candidate with a background as an environmental lawyer and anti-vaccine activist, appeals to a wide spectrum of voters, raising concerns that he could draw votes away from both major party nominees. Meanwhile, far-left independent candidate Cornel West also supports reparations, with a platform outlining a specific plan to complete the reparations process and push Congress for budget reconciliation on this issue. President Biden’s stance on reparations remains somewhat ambiguous, with support for a “study” into the matter but no clear commitment to signing a reparations bill.
