Joe Biden Under Fire For Claiming That The African-American Community Is Not Diverse

Waves of African-American voters from all walks of life are threatening to pull their support for Joe Biden after he said that he didn’t believe that the community was a diverse one.

His statement, and apology, below…

Unlike the African American community, with notable exceptions, the Latino community is an incredibly diverse community with incredibly diverse attitudes about different things.

Voters were incensed and took to social media to combat his remarks with messages arguing that it couldn’t be any further from the truth….using worldviews held by the likes of Amanda Seales, Candace Owens, Kanye West, Janet Mock & the late Hermain Cain to highlight just how diverse the African-American community actually is.

.@JoeBiden thinks all black people think alike? COME ON JOE! We all fashioned in the image of God and are unique individuals.

This is how Joe Biden sees the African American community. No wonder he thinks an African American is not black if he or she doesn’t vote for him. Only God knows what despicable things he is saying about Black people in private. https://t.co/XU9g9ZuC7F

Biden, who hopes to put an end to chaos caused by the Trump administration, issued this statement shortly after…

Earlier today, I made some comments about diversity in the African American and Latino communities that I want to clarify. In no way did I mean to suggest the African American community is a monolith—not by identity, not on issues, not at all.

Throughout my career I’ve witnessed the diversity of thought, background, and sentiment within the African American community. It’s this diversity that makes our workplaces, communities, and country a better place.
