An excerpt from Hillary Clinton’s book where she talks about the slaves who worked for her in the governor’s mansion.
People think Hillary Clinton, then First Lady of Arkansas, implemented this system? Not only does a First Lady have no control over this, but it was her husband who was the actual Governor. Sexism yet again. Holding the woman accountable for her husband.
These were state of Arkansas employees. Not direct employees of the Clintons.
Has this person even been to Arkansas? Apparently not.
Lots of states have used prison labor for decades. Again – these were state of Arkansas employees. Not direct employees of the Clintons.
Stop holding Hillary accountable for Bill being Governor.
Literally no one who saw this post believed that Hillary Clinton invented this system, presuming they read the words in the picture, most of what you’re saying is a strawman argument.
Anyway, the issue is her corny, condescending attitude. The issue is that the 13th Amendment banned slavery except as punishment for a crime and her husband, the governor of a slave state, had imprisoned laborers wait on him and his family in his plantation style home and the extent of Hillary Clinton’s thoughts on this practice are summarized by: “the African-Americans murderers make better servants than the African-American property thieves.”
She wrote this in 1997 after supporting welfare reform, which made life harder for millions of low-income families, and the Crime Bill of 94 which poured taxpayer money into prison and law enforcement and led to the imprisonment of one in three black men by the end of her husband’s term.
Start holding Hillary accountable for her neoliberal political philosophy? Perhaps?
