In my latest for @ForeignPolicy, I argue that how we currently understand and discuss race in the U.S. erases important nuances within groups, leading to serious miscalculations and oversights in political strategy.

We’ve reached the point where the Biden administration has adopted the George W. Bush administration’s rhetoric to attack Democrats.
NEW: I got the White House's private talking points to Congress on today's vote over weapons for Israel―a document that accuses Democrats of aiding Hamas if they vote against the Biden admin's arms deals.
Schumer is privately pressuring senators too.

Biden and Harris ran for president as candidates of the system, right down to campaigning with Dick Cheney’s daughter, Liz.
As Democrats reckon with the future of their party, foreign policy must be part of the reckoning.

On this day in 1920, a white mob in Ocoee, Florida, lynched dozens of Black Americans and razed the Black community, because a Black man attempted to vote. calendar.eji.org/racial-inju…

Please disaggregate. #ADOS men are being vilified & it’s not even them.
Thrilled to announce that @BrookingsGov published my commentary, "Not like us? Exploring foreign-born Black men’s distinct voting patterns in the 2020 election." #blm #blackpolitics

A higher share of foreign-born Black American men voted for Donald Trump in the 2020 presidential election compared to U.S.-born and second-generation Black American men, finds @RyonCobb.

Fascinating finding. More specificity is needed when we talk about "Black" voters.

Amid recent discussions around VP Harris' efforts to engage parts of the Black electorate, I'm resharing this piece I wrote for @ForeignPolicy a few months ago. I argue that policy makers would do well to speak to the Black community's longstanding anti-war sensibilities.
Read the piece, here: foreignpolicy.com/2024/07/12…
1/My latest @CarnegieEndow piece based on findings from an August 2024 survey with @YouGov is out now. While Americans views toward foreign policy challenges are largely mediated by political affiliation, there are political disagreements along racial lines within each party.
3/ On Ukraine, 64% of White Harris supporters back military aid to Ukraine regains lost territory, compared to just 34% of Black Harris supporters. Black Harris supporters views align more with White and Black Trump supporters.
