African Americans deeply pessimistic about where country is heading, poll finds
A large majority of African-Americans feel negatively about the direction the country is heading and most are pessimistic about their own prospects under the Trump administration, a poll released this week shows. In a nationwide survey of 1,003 African-Americans, taken in July and August of this year, 84 percent said they feel the country is on the wrong track and around two thirds said they feel worried about President Donald Trump and fear his policies will negatively affect black people.
