Pete Buttigieg, The Ugly Lie About Black Voters & 'Intellectual Laziness'

A recent Washington Post op-ed entitled "The Ugly Lie About Black Voters and Pete Buttigieg," writer, Jonathan Capehart reminds readers that "African Americans have evolved on LGBTQ equality just like everyone else.

According to the Pew Research Center, only 29 percent of blacks supported same-sex marriage in 2009. Ten years later, a majority (51 percent) now does. Sure, that is lower than other ethnic groups, but not significantly so. Also, citing that gap contributes to the intellectual laziness on this matter especially while ignoring other relevant data points."
