[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't throw Muslims under the bus. Muslim Americans had been reliably Democratic voters for over two decades.

For all the posters claiming misogyny as the reason for not voting for Harris, that includes voting for Clinton over Trump (over 80% voted for her).

And before claiming racism as the reason for not voting Harris, about 2/3 of Muslim Americans are either Black or South Asian.[/quote]

Are you sure you understand how racism, misogyny, and misogynoir work in real life?  I’m smh at your suggestion that  “South Asian” votes for a female biracial BLACK and Asian candidate could not be impacted by racism.

Seriously, is your comment based upon your deep familiarity with “South Asian” Americans — and how they view and interact with Black people?  Also note that comparing Clinton votes to Harris votes you seem to be missing any discussion of misogynoir and intersectionality.  So go for it. Just don’t assume that a white female Clinton and a Black/Asian Harris i s viewed the same way by a Muslim American population— that has grown and changed over the last decade or so.
