    In my opinion I feel this is generally this is the case due to the fact that black Americans make up such a high percentage the American living in poverty. Being a Social Worker, I view race and politics in a very distinct way, and I feel that democrats are often more likely to vote on behalf of legislation that highly impacts poverty, as well as social service programs. Overall the values of the democratic party are in line with the values of lower class Americans and those in social services, which means they are often the ones to promote social justice and be sensitive to class and race issues in policy. So, in short, it is viewed by many that democrats are more likely to aid in promoting social justice through policy that will impact the poor minorities in this country.
