Bernie says: “When you’re white you don’t know what it’s like to be living in a ghetto, what it’s like to be poor.”
I wish Bernie had told me that while I supported a family while I worked my way through seven years of college and graduate school on $4,200 a year. Certainly, I would not have felt as poor. Maybe I would have lived in better neighborhoods.
Where were you then, Bernie?
Or maybe, because I’m was white (still am), I really wasn’t poor.
