Director Spike Lee endorses Bernie Sanders
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleSpike Lee, the actor and director for decades who has made poignant feature films about African-Americans, endorses Bernie Sanders for president Tuesday, urging voters to “wake up” to the candidate’s battle for financial equality.
“I know that you know the system is rigged,” Lee says in a new radio ad unveiled in south Carolina, where Sanders squares off with Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton in their primary Saturday.
“For too long we’ve given our votes to corporate puppets … Ninety-nine percent of Americans were hurt by the great recession of 2008, and many are still recovering. And that’s why I’m officially endorsing my brother Bernie Sanders,” he says.
