In honor of Mercedes Sclapp comparing Joe Biden to Mr. Rogers, watch this moment from 1969 where Rogers let his feet soak in a kiddie pool alongside “Officer Clemmons,” a Black man.

Black people were still being segregated from swimming pools, so this was a very powerful moment. pic.twitter.com/AjvUcLe5nG
