Other comments by Gingrich with reference to people of African American descent
Gingrich has repeatedly referred to President Barack Obama as a "food stamp president", and has said he'd tackle black teen unemployment by easing child labor laws so that poor kids can work as janitors in their schools, replacing union workers.
He has also said that children in poor neighborhoods have no role models for work, and no concept of getting paid, unless it's for something illegal. He has proposed turning school children from poor neighborhoods into apprentice school janitors, replacing union workers.
