<p style="font-weight: 400;">President Biden referred to new Maryland Democratic governor Wes Moore, the first black governor of his state, as “boy.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Biden made his remarks before an audience of IBEW union workers.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“You got a hell of a new governor in Wes Moore, I tell ya,” Biden grinned. “He’s the real deal, and the boy looked like he could still play. He got some guns on him.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Biden routinely uses the term “boy&#8221; to refer to others, as Fox News <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/biden-refers-marylands-first-black-governor-racially-charged-term-during-remarks-economy" target="_blank" rel="noopener">noted</a>, having said of Sen. Chris Coons (D-DE), “And Chris Coons, who has the seat I used to hold. Only difference is that he not only has a law degree, he has a divinity degree. The boy can preach.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">He has also said of former U.S. Secretary of the Army Patrick Murphy, “And my buddy, Patrick Murphy, former … Secretary of the Army as well as a former congressman. And the boy stays in shape, man. Look at him.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Both Coons and Murphy are white.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">In August 2021, Biden introduced senior adviser Cedric Richmond, who is black, this way: &#8220;I&#8217;m here with my senior adviser and boy who knows Louisiana very, very well and New Orleans, Cedric Richmond.”</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Not only does Biden not sound great here, but also called Cedric Richmond &quot;boy,&quot; something the left would lose it if he were a Republican: &quot;I&#39;m here with &#8212; with my senior adviser and boy who knows Louisiana very, very well &#8212; man &#8212; and &#8212; and New Orleans, Cedric Richmond.&quot; <a href="https://t.co/T11qNAGJhu">pic.twitter.com/T11qNAGJhu</a></p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">In 2019, discussing having worked with segregationists in the Senate in the past, Biden stated, “I was in a caucus with James O. Eastland. He never called me ‘boy,’ he always called me ‘son.’”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Criticized for his remarks, Biden said, “To the extent that anybody thought that I meant something different, that is not what I intended it. It’d be wrong for anybody to intend that.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">But New Jersey Democrat Sen. Cory Booker called on Biden to apologize. “This is about him invoking a terrible power dynamic that he showed a lack of understanding or insensitivity to by invoking this idea that he was called ‘son’ by white segregationists who, yeah, they see in him their son,” he <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/biden-apologizes-comments-segregationist-democrats-criticism/story?id=64169984" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> on ABC’s “This Week.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Booker added on <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2019/06/20/politics/cory-booker-joe-biden-apologize-cnntv/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">CNN</a>, “For his posture to be, ‘I’ve done nothing wrong, you should apologize, I’m not a racist,’ is so insulting and so missing the larger point that he should not have to have explained to him, that this is not a lesson that someone who is running for president of the united states should have to be given.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;" data-uri="archive.cms.cnn.com/_components/paragraph/instances/paragraph_21EF9614-6CDD-B4F4-360D-81E16A303136@published" data-editable="text" data-component-name="paragraph" data-analytics-observe="off">“These are the kind of things that do cause hurt and harm,” Booker added.</p>
