This week, footage surfaced of the Senator being questioned about reparations. In the clip, an African American woman asks him

“We really want to talk about, what are we going to do about reparations?”

Bernie looks confused and quickly addressing the young lady before he walked away, seemly dodging the question.

The Senator answered,

“We just spoke about that.”

Another woman in the background can be heard saying,

“You don’t want to talk about this?”

Here is his response,

“What does that mean?”
