I believe that you'll find that it happens the other way around much more often than this video would suggest.

It seems to be a de facto extension of the Hillary group.

It appears that the strong and brave HRC acolytes have silenced heretical people of color in the AA group. It's a celebration of diversity by invitation only.

fomenting a lot of anti-Bernie sentiment.

Based on lies, of course, but it was somewhat successful in chasing off the pro-Bernie people.

Yes, that was the trust of the video, but there was a much deeper message for those listening. He spoke about how it undermines the basic fight for justice and equality when we use race for our desire to elect a particular candidate, he included Bernie supporters when speaking about this. He spoke about how non African Americans, no matter how well intentioned, were not advancing the cause when they speak out of turn about race, in fact, it is detrimental to the cause. He used himself as an example as a supporter of feminist issues, knowing what lines not to cross.

It really was a wonderful piece. Even though it was tough on Clinton supporters, I hope you listen to it again, there really is so much more to it.

They probably started using ignore when they realized most of them were already being ignored... and couldn't get a rise out of most Bernie Supporters

And this was after a whole lot of praise that they were courageous enough to jump on stage with Bernie Sanders to protest our militant police.
