From Wikipedia:“Dog-whistle politics is political messaging employing coded language that appears to mean one thing to the general population but has an additional, different or more specific resonance for a targeted subgroup.”
yeh, those uppity darkies are sure pushy aren’t they?sure, Sharpton and Jackson have made a ton of money, but the fact remains that prejudice is rampant.walk a mile in a black man’s shoes, before you declare racism over….not a supremely gifted athlete, actor or politician, just an ordinary person, like yourself
Sharpton is a vile and disgusting race-baiting whore. He has made a fortune rushing around shoving himself in front of the cameras whenever he can smell a buck to be made from some real or imagined affront to a black person. Why someone has not put a large hole in his head is beyond me.
Why are the posts assuming that that is a black guy on the soapbox? He looks more white to me. And 5 years after all these posts, a white racist (orange, actually) used bigots and the help of russians to steal the presidency. Now it looks as if he will soon be headed to prison.

Is that Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson?

I’m sure that very few alleged code words really are intended as such. The likes of Sharpton are professional paranoids.
