Condoleezza Rice takes jab at liberals for assuming how Black people should think: ‘Problem with the left’

Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said Tuesday the “problem with the left” is liberals assume how Black people should think.

The prominent African American Republican told the Aspen Security Forum that she doesn’t think the United States will ever be a truly colorblind society, but she hopes that one day people will stop making assumptions based on race.

“I don’t really care if we’re colorblind, but I would like to get to the place that when you see somebody who is Black, you don’t have preconceived notions of what they’re capable of, who they are — by the way, what they think, which is I think a problem of the left,” Rice said in a video interview with The New York Times’ Peter Baker at the forum. “You look at somebody who’s Black and you think you know what they think, or you at least think you know what they ought to think.”

Rice’s comments came after Joe Biden argued African Americans who can’t decide whether to vote for him or President Trump “ain’t black.” Biden’s remarks to Charlamagne Tha God drew swift backlash from African Americans who said Biden, a 77-year-old White Democrat, was condescending and arrogant for trying to dictate how African Americans should vote.
