The new DNC Chair, Tom Perez, is well suited to head up the Democratic party since he has a racist past of labeling white people as privileged and they deserve less protection under the law because of the color of their skin.
An investigation into Perez revealed extreme racist views he holds according to A Review of the Operations of the Voting Section of the Civil Rights Division conducted by the Office of the Inspector General Oversight and Review Division in March of 2013. Perez told investigators that white people were not entitled to protection under the Voting Rights Act according to a report from the Washington Free Beacon.
From The Department of Justice:
CRT AAG Perez stated that interpreting Section 5’s retrogressive-effects standard to not cover White citizens was consistent with the Division’s longstanding practice, as well as case law interpreting the provision and the intent behind its enactment… Perez noted that the Division has always understood the term ‘minority’ to mean not numerical minority but rather an identifiable and specially disadvantaged group.
Perez made excuses for his views to investigators by claiming that creating equal protections for White citizens “would create ‘dramatic complications.'”
From The Department of Justice:
According to Perez, applying Section 5’s retrogressive-effect protections to White citizens would create ‘dramatic complications’ … noting that ‘many voting changes … will almost always have some racial effect in some direction,’ and if the retrogressive-effect standard protects everyone, then virtually no proposed voting changes would ever be approved.
Congrats to @DNC chair @TomPerez & deputy @keithellison. Excited for strong, unified party standing for best of our country into the future.

Hillary Clinton embracing him is no doubt a bad sign in itself.
Don’t forget that Perez also clearly announced that socialist candidates are the future of the Democratic Party, so it’s no surprise they are embracing radicals like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib.
Perez also compliments Maxine Waters and the other radicals in the Congressional Black Caucus who embrace racist Joseph Farrakhan.
