"Frederick Douglass knew that in a binary political system, there would be one party that more clearly stood for racial progress and unity than the other.

For him, there was no question which party to support.

Political options today remain as binary and as clear as they were 140 years ago. Make your choice."

There's always been deep wisdom in African-American culture as it deals with mainstream culture. We ignore it to our peril.

Black Americans have long since been forced to see that neither party in our binary political system is ideal or pure, and the choice is always between the worse or the less worse. Tisby writes,

"Choosing between two candidates—neither of whom represent your values completely—is nothing new. And it is not an excuse to withdraw from the political process."

As Jemar Tisby reminds us, Black Americans have never had the luxury of purism as they make their political choices — a luxury that only privileged people, the kind who can toy with voting for Jill Stein or not voting at all – in either case, effectively voting for Trump – can afford.
