That's So Fetch (Stop Trying To Make Fetch Happen)

On Wednesdays, we talk politics! Welcome to the 1890 Project Podcast!

In this episode, we are joined by Charles Taylor, a political data scientist, organizer, and the Executive Director of the MS State Conference NAACP. Together, we explore the systematic methods used to suppress Black votes post-Civil War and Reconstruction era, as well as the insidious tactics that persist today. We also discuss the potential of meaningful change through deep and consistent investment in voter education, especially for black communities, and the necessity for equitable systems of voting and representation. Lastly, we highlight the important role that young black citizens could play in shaping the political landscape.
