Summary

This quote suggests that the establishment, referring to political institutions or parties, fails to understand why they struggle to gain more support from the black community.

It emphasizes that black people are not a monolithic group and have diverse perspectives. Despite this diversity, the quote contends that many black individuals tend to vote in a similar manner, potentially suggesting a lack of alternative options or effective outreach strategies from the establishment.
