Colin Allred Blasts Talarico’s “Mediocre Black Man” Smear. Says We’ve Seen That Play Before. This wasn’t a slip. It was a familiar tactic — and Colin Allred wasn’t having it. Colin Allred forcefully responded after James Talarico was accused of calling him a “mediocre Black man” in a private conversation, rejecting the racially coded framing outright. Allred made clear this wasn’t an isolated remark but a tactic the Black community has seen before, warning against praise for Black women being used to tear down Black men. The moment exposed long-standing political plays that Black voters immediately recognize and reject. We’ve launched our official Telegram channel.

But lets not be mislead into believing there are no white supremacists in the democratic party. This is a country has been racist from the beginning.
