Answer:

Indeed, for historical reasons African Americans have a different public and political opinion than whites. People of African descent have historically suffered economic, social, cultural and political discrimination and relegation since the abolition of slavery after the Civil War, generally obtaining less recognition and benefits from the government than the white majority in the country. For this reason, African Americans have evolved in their thinking towards positions of progressive tint, supporting mostly the Democratic Party and the liberal, inclusive and less conservative ideologies.
