I don't think sorting people by race and sex is a good strategy for appealing to swing voters.
It's worth noting that these zoom calls & livestreams are not organized by the Harris campaign (article points that out)
Its actually a genius strategy showing she has widespread appeal across different groups.
It isn't sorting, it is breaking stereotypes.
Because the swing voters are predominantly multiracial enbies?
I think they're saying swing voters are often white "I don't see race" types and don't understand why a black woman's organization should exist in the first place.
Do you think the several examples of "White guys? eww." found in this thread are a better strategy?
No one has done that, and I know because I'm one of the people you're complaining to. White men are value neutral. White men organizing on race and sex is the disturbing part because there's both no real need for it to happen and literally every other time it's happened it's devolved into white supremacy.
You literally did that seven hours prior.
