Biden attempted to clarify some of his positions on segregation and race relations during the Democratic pre-primary Third Debate for the 2020 Presidential nomination, when questioned by Linsey Davis. By the time he finished obfuscating, he insinuated that black parents didn't know how to raise their children.<ref>https://hotair.com/archives/ed-morrissey/2019/09/13/bidens-answer-inequality-one-explicitly-racist-moments-time-democratic-debate/</ref>  Author Anand Giridharadas flagged the moment, wondering, "Is this not one of the most explicitly racist moments of all time in a Democratic primary debate?" and he posted on ''Twitter'': "Joe Biden's answer on how to address the legacy of slavery was appalling -- and disqualifying.  It ended in a sermon implying that black parents don't know how to raise their own children.  This cannot go on.  #DemDebate"<ref>Ryan Grim | ''The Intercept_'', Joe Biden’s Stunningly Racist Answer on the Legacy of Slavery Has Been Overlooked, https://theintercept.com/2019/09/13/joe-biden-democratic-debate-slavery/, September 13 2019</ref>

{{quotebox|'''Linsey Davis:''' Mr. Vice President, I want to talk to you about inequality in schools and race. In a conversation about how to deal with segregation in schools back in 1975, you told a reporter, “I don’t feel responsible for the sins of my father and grandfather. I feel responsible for what the situation is today, for the sins of my own generation, and I’ll be damned if I feel responsible to pay for what happened 300 years ago.” You said that some 40 years ago, but as you stand here tonight, what responsibility do you think that Americans need to take to repair the legacy of slavery in our country?

'''Biden:''' No, I’m going to go like the rest of them do, twice over, OK? Because here’s the deal. The deal is that we’ve got this a little backwards. And by the way, in Venezuela, we should be allowing people to come here from [[Venezuela]]. I know [[Nicolas Maduro|Maduro]]. I’ve confronted Maduro. No. 2, you talk about the need to do something in Latin America. I’m the guy that came up with $740 million to see to it those three countries, in fact, change their system so people don’t have to chance to leave. You’re all acting like we just discovered this yesterday! Thank you very much.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H7Tpx5WMFio&feature=youtu.be</ref>}}
