Summary
Lurie breaks down the critical conversations facing Black America: the collapse of US-Canada trade negotiations, the Supreme Court's decision on mail-in ballots, and why criticizing Hakeem Jeffries for meeting with Jared Kushner misses the bigger picture. Later, she's joined by Roland Martin, who breaks down his new book 'White Fear' and explains how the systematic attack on Black infrastructure—from DEI programs to federal contracts—represents a coordinated effort to prevent Black political and economic power. Roland offers a roadmap for Black political power, emphasizing that winning elections is the only path to protecting our communities. The conversation gets real about what's at stake and what we need to do right now. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
