There seems to be an election rumor going around the Internet: Bernie Sanders, unlike Hillary Clinton, doesn’t speak to the issues that people of color care about. And it looks like those issues are pretty much limited to immigration, criminal justice, and “race.”

I’ll set aside the fact that the NAACP and the NHLA (the national Latino coalition) have both given Sanders 100 percent voting scores in every Congress of his Senate career — unlike Hillary Clinton.

Or that Sanders described the Ferguson police as resembling “an occupying army in a hostile territory” and voted against “declaring English the official language of the U.S. government, building a fence along the Mexican border, restricting immigrant visas for skilled workers and reporting undocumented aliens who receive hospital treatment.”
