Clyburn says prediction of ‘Jim Crow 2.0’ coming true
by Lauren Irwin - 03/19/25 8:25 PM ET
Rep. James Clyburn (D-S.C.) said his previous theory that the Trump administration would enact “Jim Crow 2.0” is coming true.
Clyburn joined CNN’s Brianna Keilar on Wednesday, when he was asked if he could find a line between the Democratic Party not having a proper primary in 2024 and the party’s current infighting.
“What does DEI have to do with Jackie Robinson and Medgar Evers? And what did it have to do with saying it is no longer persona non grata to have government sponsored events in segregated establishments,” Clyburn said.
“This is the establishment of Jim Crow 2.0,” he continued. “I said that before we ever had the election and it’s coming true.”
