Hillary Clinton Blames Whites, Cops for Deaths of Young Black Men


by Neil Munro8 Jul 2016

Hillary Clinton used a CNN interview on Friday to completely embrace the Democrats’ claim that white people and cops must change to help reduce the number of African-Americans killed in tense exchanges with cops.

“I will call for white people, like myself, to put ourselves in the shoes of those African-American families who fear every time their children go somewhere, who have to have ‘The Talk,’ about, you now, how to really protect themselves [from police], when they’re the ones who should be expecting protection from encounters with police,” Clinton told CNN’s Wolf Blitzer.

“I’m going to be talking to white people, we’re the ones who have to start listening to the legitimate cries coming from our African-American fellow citizens,” she said.

“We’ve got to figure out what is happening when routine traffic stops, when routine arrests, escalate into killings … Clearly, there seems to be a terrible disconnect between many police departments and officers and the people they have sworn to protect,” she said.

Federal policing guidelines are needed because “we have 18,000 police departments… [some of which need more training to] go after systemic racism, which is a reality, and to go after systemic bias,” she said.
“We’ve got to start once again respecting and treating each other with the dignity that every person deserves,” she said.

The statement echoed a tweet from Friday morning.

White Americans need to do a better job of listening when African Americans talk about the seen and unseen barriers you face every day.

To win in November, Clinton need a high turnout of African-American voters.

Neither Blitzer nor Clinton suggested that African-American communities have a role in reducing police-encounter deaths, which usually occur in tense engagements between a few cops and a few suspects with extensive criminal histories.

In general, young African-American men are far more likely to commit crimes than young white men, young Asian men or young Latino men. A November 2011 report by the Justice Department showed that young African-American men are just 1 percent of the population, yet are responsible for a disproportionate percentage of murders in the nation.

Clinton suggested that people who disagree with her agenda are racists. “There is so much more to be done… we can’t be engaging in hateful rhetoric or incitement of violence, we need to be bringing people together … we need more love and kindness.”

CNN’s Lemon: Hillary May Have Just Won Over Voters Of Color With Call For White People To Listen

by Pam Key8 Jul 2016

Friday, on CNN, host Don Lemon praised presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton’s comments on the recent police shootings in Louisiana and Minnesota and the shooting of police officers in Dallas.

Lemon believes Hillary saying, “I’m going to be talking to white people. I think we’re the ones who have to start listening to the legitimate cries that are coming from our African-American fellow citizens,” may have won over voters of color.

Lemon said, “I thought that she walked a tight rope there, because she had to show sympathy for the officers, and also talk about the issues that have happened just over the past couple of days when it comes to black men being killed, and us seeing it happen live on tape. But I thought the real interesting part, for me, Wolf, is when she said, I’m going to be calling on white people to examine themselves. I’m going to be calling on, she said, white people, to listen to the legitimate cries of our African-American brothers and sisters. So, speaking as a journalist, because I don’t support, or I’m not against any presidential candidate, that’s not my role, but I will put myself in the role of the black voter in this country, of minority voters in this country. That is an appealing message to minority voters in this country, because there is nothing wrong with examining oneself.”

He continued, “If you don’t do that, at some level, if you don’t want to call it racist, if you don’t want to call it bigoted, it is certainly selfish for people not to do that, and considering the history of this country. I think all of us — there is room for every single person in this country, regardless of ethnicity, to examine oneself, to see if there are any racist, bigoted, or biased tendencies within us. And it’s especially incumbent, quite frankly, on white people to do that, considering the history of this country, and slavery, and Jim Crow, and beyond.

And, if you are, at this moment in time, saying, well, black people just need to clean up their acts, and maybe they won’t be shot by police and all those things, you are on the wrong message. You should be wondering, and you should be empathetic with your black brothers and sisters, and ask, why are they feeling this way? Why is this happening with police officers? Even if you don’t believe it’s real, how do you correct it? I think her message was very appealing to voters of color. And I think, if she had an issue with voters of color, she may have just won them over with that moment.”
