'''September 2020: "Some Black woman was able to stack the grocery shelf"'''

Biden landed in hot water over a viral clip of him suggesting why people were able to quarantine during the coronavirus pandemic.

"They're saying, 'Jeez, the reason I was able to stay sequestered in my home is because some Black woman was able to stack the grocery shelf,'" Biden is heard saying in the clip.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Wulfsohn|first=Joseph|date=2020-10-05|title=Biden suggests people were able to quarantine because 'some Black woman was able to stack the grocery shelf' in viral clip|url=https://www.foxnews.com/politics/biden-suggests-people-were-able-to-quarantine-because-some-black-woman-was-able-to-stack-the-grocery-shelf-in-viral-clip|access-date=2020-11-30|website=Fox News|language=en-US}}</ref>

'''May 2020: “You ain’t black.”'''

In an interview with “The Breakfast Club,” the presumptive Democratic nominee told host Charlamagne tha God, “I tell you if you have a problem figuring out whether you’re for me or Trump, then you ain’t black,” before defending his record with the black community.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Steinhauser|first=Paul|date=2020-05-22|title=Biden says 'you ain't black' if torn between him and Trump, in dustup with Charlamagne tha God|url=https://www.foxnews.com/politics/biden-torn-him-and-trump-aint-black-in-dust-up-with-charlamagne-tha-god|access-date=2020-11-30|website=Fox News|language=en-US}}</ref>

'''August 2019: “Poor kids” just as bright as “white kids”'''

At a campaign event in Iowa, Biden told supporters “poor kids are just as bright and talented as white kids.” He quickly corrected himself after some applause by adding: “Wealthy kids, black kids, Asian kids.”<ref>{{Cite web|last=DeMarche|first=Edmund|date=2019-08-08|title=Biden says ‘poor kids’ just as bright as ‘white kids’ in latest gaffe|url=https://www.foxnews.com/politics/biden-says-poor-kids-just-as-bright-as-white-kids-in-latest-gaffe|access-date=2020-11-30|website=Fox News|language=en-US}}</ref>

'''June 2019: “The kid wearing a hoodie.”'''

While discussing the need for criminal justice reform at a luncheon last year, Biden said people must continue to work to recognize black as equals so that African American mothers, like the mother of Trayvon Martin who was shot by a neighborhood watch volunteer in Florida in 2012, no longer have to fear their sons will be shot when they go outside.

"We've got to recognize that the kid wearing a hoodie may very well be the next poet laureate and not a gangbanger," Biden said.

Biden quickly drew criticism for his use of the word “gangbanger.” Former presidential candidate Cory Booker said Biden “needs to have the language to talk about race in a far more constructive way.”<ref>{{Cite web|title=https://twitter.com/corybooker/status/1144726887643721730|url=https://twitter.com/corybooker/status/1144726887643721730|access-date=2020-11-30|website=Twitter|language=en}}</ref>

'''June 2019: Biden touts his work with segregationist senators'''

Biden was slammed by fellow Democrats after invoking his ability decades ago to work with two segregationist southern senators to “get things done.”<ref>{{Cite web|last=Steinhauser|first=Paul|date=2019-06-19|title=Biden slammed by Dem rivals for highlighting ability to work with segregationist senators|url=https://www.foxnews.com/politics/biden-slammed-segregationist-senators|access-date=2020-11-30|website=Fox News|language=en-US}}</ref>

Biden brought up the names of Sens. Eastland of Mississippi and Herman Talmadge of Georgia while speaking at a fundraiser Tuesday in New York City. Eastland and Talmadge, two senior members in the Senate when Biden arrived in the chamber in 1973, were firmly opposed to desegregation efforts.

“I was in a caucus with James O. Eastland,” Biden said as he briefly imitated the late senator’s southern drawl. “He never called me boy. He always called me son.”

But discussing the “civility” in the Senate during the 1970s, Biden said: “Well guess what? At least there was some civility. We got things done. We didn’t agree on much of anything. We got things done. We got it finished. But today, you look at the other side and you’re the enemy. Not the opposition, the enemy. We don't talk to each other anymore.”

Sens. Cory Booker, Kamala Harris and Elizabeth Warren, also running for president at the time, raised serious concerns.

'''August 2012: “Put y’all back in chains”'''

Then-Vice President Biden told a Virginia audience that then-Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney’s financial regulation lifts would "put y'all back in chains."

"He said in the first 100 days, he's going to let the big banks once again write their own rules," Biden said. "Unchain Wall Street! They're gonna put y'all back in chains."<ref>{{Cite web|last=Barrett|first=Wes|date=2015-03-25|title=Biden to Southern audience: Romney financial plan would ‘put y’all back in chains’|url=https://www.foxnews.com/politics/biden-to-southern-audience-romney-financial-plan-would-put-yall-back-in-chains|access-date=2020-11-30|website=Fox News|language=en-US}}</ref>

'''February 2007: Obama is "the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean”'''

Biden, while running for the 2008 presidency, issued what he thought was praise of then-Senator Barack Obama, saying he was "the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean."

Biden apologized for the statement at the Democratic National Committee’s winter meeting. "I want to say that I truly regret that the words I spoke offended people that I admire very much," he said.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2015-03-25|title=Sen.

'''"You can't go to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent"'''

Biden, then a senator of Delaware, can be seen in a clip talking to a man who appears to be of Indian descent. “In Delaware the largest growth in population is Indian Americans,” Biden said. “You cannot go to a 7-11 or a Dunkin Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent. not joking.”<ref>{{Citation|title=📺 Live TV Streaming, On Demand, Originals, and Movies – CBS All Access|url=https://www.cbs.com/all-access/|language=en|access-date=2020-11-30}}</ref>

Biden praised the notorious segregationist politician George Wallace, boasted about how Wallace once honored him with an award in 1973, and told a Southern audience in 1987 that “we [Delawareans] were on the South’s side in the Civil War.”<ref>{{Cite web|title=20 Sep 1987, Page 79 - The Philadelphia Inquirer at Newspapers.com|url=http://www.newspapers.com/image/169834248/?terms=biden|access-date=2020-11-30|website=Newspapers.com|language=en}}</ref>

While delivering remarks before a black audience in Delaware, Biden launched into a meandering story about a gang leader named Corn Pop and claimed that he “learned about roaches” while working at a community pool in a black neighborhood. <ref>{{Cite news|last=Andrews|first=Travis M.|title=Joe Biden recalls lessons learned as the only white lifeguard at city pool in 1962|language=en-US|work=Washington Post|url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2017/06/27/joe-biden-recalls-lessons-learned-as-the-only-white-lifeguard-at-inner-city-pool-in-1962/|access-date=2020-11-30|issn=0190-8286}}</ref>
