It will not happen until we have a Democratic President, Senate and House - we need to be realistic about this. It also has to be 'sold' as truly all inclusive and assurances to the 'others' that they will be included - no ifs, ands, or buts, about it.
Coates got a lot of folks 'woke'. Us is woke - and it might seem silly - but I think in certain circles there will be a fear that we will once again be asked to pay into something that Fed Gov 'red lines' from.
I know - it's silly - but you have to be realistic about a very large and consistent voting block within the Democratic Party. Us is 'woke' - and we won't be falling asleep again any time soon.
To get that block? Start now. Really - start now. Talk to black women about breast cancer death rates and make the play - you will FINALLY get equal treatment. Start now!
