Activist Shaun King gave Independent Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders a backhanded compliment while introducing the 2020 presidential hopeful at a rally in Brooklyn, New York, Saturday.
“For most of us in our minds, Bernie has always been a disheveled, gray-haired, bespectacled politician for most of us,” King said. “Bernie starts in our mind for who he is right now today. Don’t get me wrong, I love who Bernie is today, but I need to tell you a little bit about how he got here.”
King recounted how Sanders was involved in the civil rights movement while studying at the University of Chicago.
