Its funny how ignorant people are of how entrenched the KKK and white supremacy was ( and still is) in the Democratic party. This Republican's are racists narrative is truly comical to anyone who has read any history.... like at all. |
That changed with Nixon's southern strategy after the passing of the civil rights act. The racist block within the dnc went republican or only kept the democratic label to keep being elected while voting with republican platforms that were in alignment with their views. Then Nixon seeing a massive opportunity for funding and votes, appealed to those voters and shifted the perception and platform of the rnc.
