NJ Black Mayors’ Alliance for Social Justice endorses Hillary Clinton
The New York Amsterdam News ^ | June 2, 2016 | Cyril Joshua Barker

This week, Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton met with 15 members of the N.J. Black Mayors’ Alliance for Social Justice to discuss issues important to their communities. After the event, the Mayors’ Alliance endorsed Clinton for president.

The mayors discussed issues important to them, including the economy. As the nation comes back from the worst downturn since the recession, the elected officials said the poor and disadvantaged have not benefited. In many New Jersey cities, more than a third of minority adults are unemployed, even when the nation is doing well financially. Data from a 2015 U.S. Census study show that the income equality gap in the Garden State is among the worst in the nation.

“The growing gap between the very wealthy and the poor, the disadvantaged and the middle class is a calamity that threatens the very existence of democracy in America,” said Newark Mayor Ras J. Baraka, chairman of the Black Mayors’ Alliance. “The fact that anyone takes Donald Trump seriously and that he has become a serious candidate for president is symptomatic of what will happen to our nation if income inequality continues to get worse. Hillary Clinton offers our best chance to achieve economic and social justice in America.”(continued)

Was there ever any doubt the corrupt racist communist/socialists would endorse another corrupt racist/communist socialist over a white male?

“Socialist Just-Us.” The same garbage that has been running this country into the ground for years.

These nitwits had a black president for eight years and they’re still bitching about how bad it is for their people.

They’re their own worst enemy. They don’t know how to take care of themselves or pick decent leaders. I don’t know that their situation is even fixable.

I think Baltimore/Ferguson were caused by the realization ON THEIR PART that it can’t be fixed; they want to be maintained on reservations with nothing expected of them at all.

Whites have complied for fifty years, and the hatred has grown exponentially towards the (non-black) hands that feed...
