We will discuss what she had to say and how this has renewed the white house push to ban assault weapons in the US. After Tennessee's historic and baseless expulsion of Jones and Pearson, more democrats and constituents are mobilizing. We will speak with Reverend William Barbara, Tennessee former county commissioner Tami Sawyer, Council member Joy Styles, and Reverend Stephen Green about ensuring we can protect our democracy. Hip-hop is turning 50 this year. Chuck D and Daddy O of Public Enemy are planning a new movement to help cure some of the systemic ills of the community and help artists succeed on their terms. They'll stop by to explain.
