Hillary Clinton and Black Lives Matter activists had a frank and at times tense discussion last week behind closed doors, and thanks to video released Monday, the American public is now hearing exactly what the two sides said to each other.

Hillary Clinton is Oppression incarnate.
Now I’m 100% sure she is not getting my vote.
She talked down to this Black man like he is a child.

Police shake the hands of armed White men. Police shoot and kill unarmed Black, Latino and Amerindian men, boys, and women.
