Steve Bannon is the architect of the entire blitzkrieg that we're seeing against American values and the American people.

In the U.S., African- Americans, no matter what we do - when we sit in, when we freedom ride, when we kneel in, whatever it is, the initial response from the public tends to be overwhelmingly negative, because basically we're kind of raining on folks' parades.
