Stacey Abrams told PBS NewsHour correspondent Yamiche Alcindor in an interview at the SXSW festival in Austin, Texas, that politicians should see all communities as worth persuading. “I did not think black people were going to vote for me because I’m black,” Abrams said. “I had to spend as much time talking to the black community, talking to black women, as I did talking to white single moms, as I did white suburban moms, Latino farmers — we went everywhere and talked to everyone.”
