Why Is Bernie Sanders Against Reparations?

quote [ The Vermont senator’s political imagination is active against plutocracy, but why is it so limited against white supremacy? ]

This is the real problem with the left. Not the refusal to give a platform to the right, but the refusal to accept incrementalism and do the work necessary to improve the world. We sabotage our allies if they refuse to take up our own pet causes.

Really the article is kind of funny in trying to tie together two hopeless causes. The chances of reparations ever happening is about the same as Bernie being elected president.
