#286 What Does It Mean To End White Politics? Ft. Zerlina Maxwell

On today’s Sup podcast, Amanda is joined by MSNBC political analyst and author Zerlina Maxwell. Maxwell’s book “The End Of White Politics,” asks why liberals are so obsessed with winning back the thousands of white suburban voters (and racism apologists) lost to Trump, when millions of voters of color are the key to securing electoral victory. They discuss which “lessons” from 2016 are sound and which miss the point, why “white identity politics” is just politics, and why the Democratic party has refused to pivot despite losing the majority of the white vote since 1964. Finally, Maxwell breaks down what Joe Biden needs to do to signal his commitment to voters of color to keep 2020 turnout high Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
