According to the anti-racism “educator,” what Trump really is preaching is that black people are “others” and jealous and poor white people need a scapegoat. “If the only reason for Trump’s support was economic anxiety then people of color should be flocking to Trump,” Wise told CNN’s Brian Stelter, according to Raw Story. “Because black folks, for instance, are twice as likely to be out of work as white folks, three times as likely to be poor, have 1/15 the net worth, nine years less life expectancy in large part due to economic inequality.” “There’s a link between the kind of economic anxiety that white folks are feeling and this larger political or racial anxiety,” he said, trying to prove his point. He then said Trump’s talk was just like racist Southerners who say the Civil War was about more than slavery. Its like people who say “the Civil War wasn’t about slavery, it’s about states rights,” Wise opined.
