What don't you agree with him about? I completely support Bernie that social injustice is a symptom of economic injustice.

I think when, for example, many white people see a poor black man, they probably don't see someone that's been screwed by the system. Those people may cut straight to judgement of that individual, and that is definitely not what we want.

I also think its very hard to change views of entire groups of people (i.e. black people in Baltimore, cops in Baltimore, etc.) I think instead of merely saying, "Everyone is equal and should love each other," I think we should rather find out why people can't do that.
