We’ve all been in those situations when we couldn't believe that someone actually did what we saw them do or say what we heard them say. There is a movement afoot in our country that revels in saying the quiet part out loud, deliberately making it harder for people of color to vote, boasting about their bigotry, and daring anyone to do anything about it. Who knew we'd have to fight for the franchise of voting 56 years after the Voting Rights Act was passed in 1965. Everything old is new again. Old habits die hard and racial injustice is a stubborn disease. In this episode, we address it head on and hear from experts who are telling us that democracy is on the line in this country. Believe it or not.
