POLITICAL: "My job is to shut white people down"

And this, folks, is a candidate for the next DNC Chair.

“First of all, the DNC has to acknowledge and respect that Black Lives Matter are responding to urgent social and justice problems in our country,” Ellison said. “What I would say the DNC needs to do is to offer itself, reform and make itself into the kind of place that Black Lives Matter feels it can channel its electoral energy.”

However, Boynton Brown took it a step further and said her role as a white person includes shutting other white people down.

“My job is to listen and be a voice, and my job is to shut other white people down when they want to interrupt. My job is to shut other white people down when they want to say ‘Oh no I’m not prejudiced, I’m a Democrat, I’m accepting,'” she said.

“My job is to make sure that they get that they have privilege and until we shut our mouths and we listen to those people who don’t and we lift our people up so that we all have equity in this country … we’re not going to break through this,” she said.

“This is not just rhetoric,” Boynton Brown said. “This is a matter of life and death.”

"...channel electoral energy" = VOTES

"...role as a white person" = IDENTITY POLITICS

"...until we shut our mouths" = CENSORSHIP

"...a matter of life and death" = FEAR MONGERING

I get what she's trying to say, and to whom she is trying to say it; however, someone might want to let her know it didn't work so well the last time.
