Summary

The New York Times did yet another feature story on how sad white racist Americans are about the changes happening in America. Just once it would be awesome if the mainstream media pulled up to a diner in another part of America to speak with Black, Indigenous, People of Color and asked how it feels to live in a nation that doesn't only hate you but actively tries to kill you. "Their America" as the NYT put it is vanishing because it never existed to begin with. It was all a well crafted lie. Danielle and Wajahat unpack this and so much more on this episode of #democracyish.
