[lbo-talk] Black women and Nader

[Joseph Wanzala]

Essence is a lifestyle magazine, a black 'Cosmopilitan' essentially, 
catering to bourgeoise or wanna-be bourgeoise black women, who are a natural 
constituency of the DLC. These poll results are therefore not surprising at 
all. Black women, like any other demographic group are not monolithic and 
highly differentiated politically, and a similar poll of a cross section of 
radical black women would certainly yield a very different result.
