Mayor Pete Buttigieg and Rev. Al Sharpton to discuss homophobia and agenda for black community at NYC meeting.
For the second time this month, Mayor Pete Buttigieg will meet with Rev. Al Sharpton in New York City, as the rising Democratic presidential candidate seeks to gain the support of the influential civil rights leader in the African American community.
On April 4, Buttigieg, the mayor of South Bend, Indiana, spoke at Sharpton's National Action Network Conference, where he said five areas needed to be addressed to help the black community: Justice, entrepreneurship, education, health care and home ownership. Buttigieg has not formally released any detailed policy proposals, but he's thrown support behind some key agendas for black voters, including as criminal justice reform, legalizing marijuana and approving a bill that would study reparations for descendants of slaves.
