    quiet concerns of black voters

    Sounds an awful lot like shut up and do as you are told or you go back to the fields.

      “quiet(ING) concerns” is not a unique phrase here. It’s meaning is meant to be comprehended as “addressing somebody’s concerns with compassion and giving acceptable solutions and paths forward”.

      It’s language that used to be far more common when people weren’t shouting at eachother continuously. I’m not even that old and have been part of situations where that term had been used to describe the resolution of a conflict/point of contention.

        Actually listening to the concerns of your constituents would be the only way to resolve issues. Democrata only pretends to listen around election time. The day after the election they will toss those communities back to the curb.

        They don’t talk to their constituents, they talk at them

          I see that you’re using your red herring to move those goal posts.

          That’s rather efficient of you.

            That’s not a red herring that’s been their mode of operation for decades. They will tokenize the black community for their obsession to stay in power, and then promptly throw them under the bus the day after the election. Rinse and repeat every 2 years
