(CNN)Joe Biden on Monday pledged to take steps to combat institutional racism and reestablish a police oversight body at the Justice Department as he spoke with African American leaders in Delaware after days of protests across the nation.

His comments came more than a week after Biden faced criticism for telling popular radio host Charlamagne tha God that if he was struggling to decide between Biden and President Donald Trump, "you ain't black."

Fourteen participants — religious, political and community organization leaders — sat spaced widely apart in the pews at Bethel AME church in Biden's hometown of Wilmington.

He said the Senate's control of judiciary confirmations is central to efforts to address racism through policy-making, saying that while presidents come and go, "justices don't … some will be there 20, 30, 40 years, making bad policies.""It's not enough to win the presidency.

The presumptive Democratic presidential nominee sat for an hour, listening and taking notes while wearing a face mask before standing to address the racial tensions that have erupted following the death of George Floyd at the hands of police in Minneapolis.
