Blacks voted Republican until the Great Depression until the realized the GOP has no interest in helping them. Blacks also know when there is a downturn in the economy that affects the white "majority,"it creates a disaster in the black community.
Does West really think blacks will get of of the plantation by voting for Republicans?
It's conservatives that put blacks on the plantations to begin with. It 's the Democratic Party that has tried to correct this social injustice ever since.
Alexis de Toqueville wrote about the US in the 1830s has been called a prophet because he anticipated the Civil War.
Tocqueville denounced American slavery, saying “the laws of humanity have been totally perverted.”
He predicted blacks and whites would have a tough time getting along after the abolition of slavery. Yet he was confident that blacks could do fine if they were truly liberated:
As long as the Negro remains a slave, he may be kept in a condition not far removed from that of the brutes; but with his liberty he cannot but acquire a degree of instruction that will enable him to appreciate his misfortunes and to discern a remedy for them.
