Democratic presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders was joined by renowned activist and scholar Cornel West at a campaign event in Davenport, Iowa on Friday.
During his endorsement of Sanders, West mentioned the candidate in the same breath as legendary civil rights activists such as Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X, among others. "And our dear brother Bernie Sanders - he stands on the legacy of Martin Luther King Jr., of Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschell, of Dorothy Day, of A. Philip Randolph and Ella Baker - all of those in the past who were willing to speak the truth," stated West.
His speech was followed by a speech by Sanders himself, in which he demanded to crack down on violent police officers, to demilitarise the police and force to take marijuana out of the Federal Control Substance act.
