Protecting Our Backyard & Voting Rights w/ Remel Terry (President of NAACP Westside Branch )

Join Mike, Zoe, and esteemed guest Remel Terry as they break down a visit to the newly debuted Obama Presidential Center, the mythology of a united America, and the racially muted yet politically charged upheaval exemplified by the Supreme Court decision on Louisiana vs. Calais. As it turns out, Remel presents her experience on a similar case that occurred in Illinois circa 2021 when NAACP filed a lawsuit against the State Board of Elections to defend disenfranchised black voters East in St.Louis from gerrymandering which the political party system is still victim to as more standards of livelihoods, education, and civil rights are threatened.This conversation is to encourage unity, collectivism, and personal action where it can be taken such as contacting representatives, supporting local community organizations, attending public meetings about representation and policy, and create relationships with your neighbors to strengthen your support network.
