Pastor calls for Black community to 'reevaluate' stance on Democratic Party after no invite to Harris event
Fox News
In a Thursday statement to Fox News, the Rev. Boise Kimber said he believes the Black community needs to "reevaluate" their political stance on the Democratic Party after the vice president held an education roundtable in New Haven this week.
"The vice president came to an entire Black and Hispanic community and she did not come on her own. She had to be invited. No one ever comes to a congressional district – as far as the president and vice president – without some person in that congressional district knowing that they’re coming and helping to plan the event. I think our concern is, that in the planning of the event, that there were no Blacks at the table," The reverend said the president of the New Haven Board of Alders, Tyisha Walker-Myers, who is Black, was also not invited. Neither were any clergy, with Kimber saying it was the town’s religious community that gave the Biden-Harris presidential campaign "hope" in 2020.More Related News
