BLACK REPUBLICANS
Since the mid 1960’s the Democratic Party has been the “party of choice” for the majority. Those who are bold enough and/or free thinking enough to align with the Republican Party are seen as traitorous or naïve when it comes to the realties or race and class. Big Brother Mike and Little Brother Steve examine the Black Republicans in the United States today. Who are they? What attracts them to a party that has apparently not been interested in people, but in money and corporations. Why do they embrace the likes of Donald Trump and the Koch brothers? Why was Colin Powell seen as a “different” type Black Republican?
