🚨 BREAKING: Black commentator Andre Williams says he got thrown out of an Abdul El Sayed campaign event in Detroit for "absolutely no reason at all." Two days before Election Day. His words, not mine: "All I did was walk in and sit down. These three soy jacks decided to kick me out. I live in Michigan. I have every right to be at these events, especially to listen to someone who might be my next representative." On the video, filmed by journalist Jonathan Choe, security walks him out while he asks: "I'm the only Black guy here, right? Supposed to be for Black people? You're kicking me out?" Choe says security never told them why. I found no public explanation from the campaign as of Sunday night. Now look at the rest of the day: 1. His campaign disinvited Rep. Haley Stevens from a Black church event in Detroit with Jim Clyburn. Stevens then endorsed Republican Mike Rogers, saying "he chose to close his campaign by saying I wasn't welcome." 2. Rev. Charles Williams II, who leads Al Sharpton's National Action Network in Michigan, was caught on undercover video saying there's "some just flat out disdain" for El Sayed in the community. 3. The Washington Post poll in September: 83% of Black Michigan voters want Democrats running the Senate, but only 67% back El Sayed. Now the other side, because fair is fair. Clyburn stood with him today. The Congressional Black Caucus PAC endorsed him, Obama rallied for him in Detroit, and a CNN poll has him winning Black voters by 65 points. And maybe this was just a security call. But if you want our votes, at least tell us why you're showing us the door. You can't say you're for the Black community and then walk a Black Michigan voter out of your own event without a reason. 🇺🇸 So does Abdul El Sayed have something against Black people in Michigan? YES or NO? 👇🏾 Follow @wescottamerica for breaking news and common sense #explore #fyp
