Summary

In a world of Epstein files, voter suppression and mansplaining lawmakers, Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal is a breath of fearless fresh air. She sits down with Brittany Packnett Cunningham to talk about everything from why the files matter to why some politicians still refuse to grasp the urgency of this political moment. Plus, Brittany links up with David Johns for a group chat on this Saturday’s historic voting rights rallies in Selma and Montgomery, as well as why some people are confused about exactly where the South is. For more information on how to join this Saturday’s All Roads Lead to the South National Day of Action for Voting Rights: https://blackpowerwarroom.com/dayofaction/

We as women of color are always put in this situation

0:04.3

where people think we're dumb, we're naive,

0:06.9

we don't know what we're talking about,

0:08.4

they try to attack us.

0:09.8

And look, you can't take on every single one,

another and continuing on to the pursuit of their great American dream. If you ask Trump 2.0,

0:45.3

the second guy to say, make America great again, he'd probably tell you it was morning in

0:49.0

America could too, because, you know, the immigrants are being arrested and detained and

1:12.8

these streets. It's time to stop playing around like the rules of the game still exist. The

1:18.3

playbook has been thrown out. The rule book no longer exists. They've wiped their behinds with
