Presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden issued a non-apology on Thursday evening for widely-panned remarks he made about African-Americans earlier in the day, saying that he did not “mean” what he said.
“Earlier today, I made some comments about diversity in the African American and Latino communities that I want to clarify. In no way did I mean to suggest the African American community is a monolith—not by identity, not on issues, not at all,” Biden wrote on Twitter. “Throughout my career I’ve witnessed the diversity of thought, background, and sentiment within the African American community. It’s this diversity that makes our workplaces, communities, and country a better place.”
