Buttigieg proposes 'Marshall Plan' pitch for black voters

South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg released a plan to pitch to African American voters in an attempt to shore up his support for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination.

The 37-year-old presidential hopeful has called his policy package “The Douglass Plan,” named after the abolitionist and orator Frederick Douglass, and has pitched it as a “Marshall Plan” for America. The plan is billed as a move to create “a comprehensive and intentional dismantling of racist structures and systems.”
