Democratic presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg unveiled new aspects of his plan for racial justice Thursday morning, pledging that it would "help heal our racial divides with bold policies that match the scale of the crises we face today."
Buttigieg's "Douglass Plan," named for abolitionist Frederick Douglass, would seek to combat racial inequality by focusing on reforming health care, education, entrepreneurship, criminal justice and voting rights on a federal level, per a release from his campaign. The South Bend, Indiana, mayor first announced the plan in an op-ed for the Charleston Chronicle last month.
