Dr. Gloria Tinubu, the first African-American woman in the state to win the Democratic nomination for Congress, said Sanders is in the tradition of President Franklin Roosevelt, who led our parents and grandparents through one of the most challenging times in our nations history. Like President Roosevelt, Bernie Sanders is fighting to protect our democratic way of life and our four freedoms.
I support Sanders civil rights platform and his positions to address institutional racism and structural inequality, Omari Fox, the leader of Columbias Black Lives Matter organization, said. Sanders has been a champion of the Black Lives Matter movement and his policies to end the disastrous War on Drugs and the failed era of mass incarceration are the strongest of any candidate in the race.
