'I want to see myself:' Black women mount public and private campaign for Biden to pick a Black woman running mate


Multiple groups of black women have signed on to letters and op-eds arguing that Biden should pick a black woman vice president. Can they be a good partner to Vice President Biden, can they be 'simpatico,' can they be loyal?" The potential picks themselves have walked a tight-line on outwardly advocating for a black woman to be chosen as Biden's running mate. "Unless black women make space for black women, space doesn't get made for us," Brown said, reflecting on that lesson. And then the question will then become how are people organizing and how are black women showing up in his administration," she said.
