Joe Biden will be better for race relations

Donald Trump stoked racial tensions by refusing to strongly condemn white supremacists or police brutality. He is vocally opposed to immigration and restricted borders with Central American and predominantly Muslim nations. He also spread 'birther' conspiracies about Barack Obama and Kamala Harris.

As senator and vice president, Joe Biden has worked with minority community leaders and has been endorsed by leading minority politicians. Biden served as vice president to Barack Obama and nominated Kamala Harris as his vice presidential candidate.

Donald Trump is unwilling to address the causes of racial tensions and has taken steps to ban anti-racism training that raises awareness of white privilege and systemic racism. Following the Black Lives Matter protests, these ideas need to be widely accepted if race relations are to improve.

Joe Biden has pledged to invest in minority communities and businesses, and will introduce measures that will improve the economic status of low-income Americans. Biden's criminal justice and immigration proposals will also address the root causes of racial inequalities.
