Can Black Americans Ever Be Safe Here? A Conversation on Civil Rights, Violence, and What Comes Next

Lurie Daniel Favors sits down with civil rights attorney Damario Solomon-Simmons for an unflinching conversation about America's so-called 'third founding.' They dissect how the Constitution was written by and for wealthy white men, examine the relentless violence Black communities have endured for 400 years, and question whether true safety is achievable here. From voter suppression in Texas and Florida to the economic devastation under Trump's policies, they connect historical patterns to present-day threats. The discussion tackles tough questions: Should Black Americans consider mass migration? Can we build sustainable communities without infrastructure? And what does it mean that our success consistently invites destruction? This is the conversation many avoid but desperately need. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
