With Voting Rights Stripped, Systematic Racism is Laid Bare. When Do We Get a Reckoning?

from 2 Men In Black and White: An Honest Conversation · host Mark Hayes and Brock Ganeles

The Supreme Court decision on the Voting rights Act lays bare America's systematic racism for all to see. There is no more hiding behind feigned ignorance, although MAGA messaging that "we took away your rights because Racism is no longer an issue" is wordsmithing genius. Basically we are going to screw you over and gaslight you at the same time. So with the Racism so bold and institutional in nature, when do White American acknowledge Racism and when does the country have a Racial Reckoning. The kind of honest discussion on Race in America which society has avoided for 250 years. We can't expect politicians to lead. It will need to be a bottom up process. As a final topic we discuss union-busting and Jeff Bezos tone deaf Met Gala wit a question on why were WNBA players in attendance? Seems they should be supporting unions having just been through a 6-month Labor negotiation. But, No. Time to party with Amazon, America's number one union antagonist. Disappointing showing by Paige Bueckers, Aja Wilson and Angel Reese.
