Historians Dr. Terry Anne Scott and Dr. Yohuru Williams joined me to break down the Callais ruling, trace the through line from the Confederacy to MAGA, and draw on history to chart the path forward.
SCOTUS has enraged me again. They have made terrible decisions since the beginning. Yes, the direct line from the confederacy to maga is very clear. The ahole doesn’t hide it. But your guests and you are so right: we must not give up. It enrages me that a little progress is followed by a giant effing backlash. God. But we must remember and emulate the heroes, the leaders. Diane Nash never gave up. John Lewis never gave up. Charles Mauldin is still working for the rights everyone should have without reservation. I get angry but I need to walk the steps the leaders walked. Your guests are tremendous. Thank you for this, Mr. Baba.
Thank you for mentioning the party's! I know it is obvious the SCOTUS decision is racist at it's core, but I do believe it is also a slam to Democrats! And also women's right to vote (SAVE act) We really should have held the South to account after the Civil War and again after Nixon so much getting away with actual shit! This is part (my opinion) why we are here - with a fascist and racist in our White House.
I find this interesting, the thing about it all, is that so many blacks and whites are not getting this information. The system is broken and set up to manipulate people minds about America history. As you know the MAGA crowd like Steve Miller are removing the black community history from schools libraries and historic places, I have notice that you reframed it from Jim Crow to Robert’s Crow era, which is so true, all that I could say is for blacks to learn and wake up to the new Woke ideology!

Thanks for watching Elizabeth! I agree, Terry and Yohuru are the best you’ll be hearing from them again for sure 🙌🏾
I've learned so much from this, and I like to think that I know a lot about our history. A definite save here!
Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!
Awesome. So glad you learned a lot. That’s the goal! To inform and empower. Thanks for tuning in!
