Blackout: How Black America Can Make Its Second Escape from the Democrat Plantation

What you'll learn

Enforced dependency never creates true equality. Though the Democratic Party has attracted a majority of the African American vote since the reelection of President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1936, its policies perpetuate a mentality of black inferiority and stem any real progress in racial justice. From the disintegration of the family structure to the inhibition of young minds in public education, beliefs espoused by the Left do less than nothing to improve the lives of African Americans. On the contrary, the Democratic Party ensnares its believers with the comforting lie that dependency is equality—only, this dependency must be on the generosity of the Left. Political commentator Candace Owens develops a case for the exit of African Americans from the Democratic creed,  a cyclical mentality that equates victim with victor, garnering votes through deception.
