Inside SC’s Forgotten County: ‘Black voters need to be heard.’

1. This whole county is poor, and other counties nearby are also in bad shape. But Allendale County is the most overlooked. I taught there for 28 years and tried to encourage students to make something of their lives. Even those who ended up in DJJ programs became my students again. Some did very well, but most do not have money to move to a city to go to a good college. I have stayed here to attempt to help the young people to try harder to show what they can do. Many are good kids but have not had a chance to show what they can do. I taught some how to repair a computer so they could get more high tech work. But, the county does not have many jobs available to normal students. One runs the mower to keep the school yards in good shape, but not businesses or factories have moved in. So sad that these young people cannot work where they live. They still call me and leave messages on Facebook to stay in touch. Many are now in poor health.

2. I live in barnwell county sc and its right under Allendale county

3. Wait we made on national tv lets go

4. I came here to learn about where my family came from. My grand father was born in Fairfax and my grandmother was born in Brunson.

5. I like in allendale and I love it…so don’t come for us‼️✌🏾

6. All that town is good for is a speeding ticket

7. "No reparations, no black vote 📜✍️".. "CutTheCheck!

8. Thank you ABC for this 1

9. Lord have mercy. I thought it was bad in Alabama. That's awful.

10. The Left shipped all your jobs overseas! Wake up!

11. And they voted for joe Biden.. guess where those factories went? Joe fckn Biden wrote the scam trade bills that took them. We are the cause of own problems..

12. Yet y'all voted for the same trash #NeverBiden.. This Happened under Obama and Biden .We need something new STATUS QUO is not working !!!!!

13. What are they doing to get businesses to come back ? Every community has to beg big businesses to come. The color of your skin means nothing . You say you have a lot to offer , so tell them.

14. The Israelites (People) marched around the walls once every day for six days with the priests carrying the Ark of the Covenant. On the seventh day they marched seven times around the walls, then the priests blew their ram's horns, the Israelites raised a great shout, and the walls of the city fell. Now Trump!!!! Is sterting allover again.

15. People of Allendale, please watch. https://youtu.be/xFg-_VlYagQ , https://youtu.be/g_a7dQXilCo , https://youtu.be/OURy5WFp0zk

16. Why are we as black people voting for one candidate? This is how we get taken for granted.

17. 💙🇺🇸 Bernie, Bernie, Bernie🇺🇸

18. Democratic voters in democratic cities in democratic counties ran by democratic politicians are complaining about not being heard lol

19. Pretty much says it all. Democrat… forgotten and only important for their vote…

20. This is what Clyborn should be focused on instead of chasing the spotlight and playing “king maker.” With all of his supposed influence, he hasn’t done anything of recent significance to help this historic community? I knew I smelled typical on him.

21. This should be America's big issue in November. If the American Black Voter turns out like they did in 2016 it will be a catastrophe for whoever wins. A 500 basis point drop in American Black Voters in 2016 from 2012 simply said 'we don't care about America'. That left a huge hole in our unity as a country.

22. Boats don’t matter. It doesn’t matter if you’re black away its the top one percent that controls everything that goes on in this nation.

23. Keep voting DEMOCRAT!

24. Black voters needs Socialism

25. Bernie Sanders 2020!!!! Vote for the only candidate that will fight for us.

26. Wake up blacks!! You fix what YOU have destroyed! Stop expecting everyone else to fix it for you. Keep doing what’s not working but expect different results. Insanity?? Yes!

27. white people live in poverty just the same, stop making it about race.

28. They don't even have a school, mall or nothing I would just leave

29. What about the Black Caucus?
    Aren't they bringing us all closer to Utopia every day?

30. Get off foodstamps and get a job

31. Need ta go ta jail then bac ta Africa. Shut up. Go home!!!!

32. Blackout the democratic party. Trump 2020, doing more for black folks than Democrats ever have!

33. Shameful- and the politicians will Keep taking advantage of You – who closed the factories? Why did they close, why aren’t your representatives helping?!
    Voting for the Democratic Party might just be the problem … how long has this county been voting Democratic???
    They don’t care! The only thing they care about is Winning a race 😞Sad Truth

34. Poleticians don't help them out, cause they are too busy helping out billionaires on Wall street…

35. I'm from a bigger city. If I had the money and I mean big money I would move there and put money into that small town. I'm tired of the city.

36. Well I thought Trump was helping African Americans? He's President now. Where's the employment? What are Republicans doing to solve poverty and homelessness? Where are the affordable wages ? Go Bernie 👍🏿 You are what Trump was supposed to be. Let's go baby!!!
