Nope, STILL WORSE THAN THAT.","description":"OA1260 - The Supreme Court lectures us on the right way to combat racism, which is to close our eyes and pretend it\u2019s not happening. In Louisiana v. Callais\u2026 the court guts the Voting Rights Act, weaponizes the 14th Amendment against prevention of racial discrimination in the name of preventing racial discrimination, and opens the door to banning basically all government or government-sponsored practices designed to combat racism. Or national origin discrimination. And probably gender discrimination. However bad you\u2019ve heard this is, it\u2019s worse. Listen to Jenessa and Thomas slowly lose their minds as they game out the myriad implications of this nonsense. Previous episode on this topic: 1199 \u201cThey\u2019re Going to End the Voting Rights Act.
