The majority of black voters, particularly young black voters, are susceptible to a new kind of political fraud. Take the case of Black Lives Matter activists, composed primarily of young black Americans of voting age. “Not your grandmother’s civil rights movement” is how many Black Lives Matter activists describe their movement. Then we’d surely be better off without voting AT ALL.” Black Lives Matter activists such as Hawk Newsome legitimized that posture. The Pew Research Center reported that black voter turnout declined precipitously in 2016, when 765,000 black Americans failed to vote.
