This week, Brie speaks to a reporter who broke the story of the leaked tape posted to Reddit, which revealed racist remarks by LA city council members and a pattern of racial infighting over redistricting plans. Much of the coverage has focused on the racially charged statements, but we dig into the politics of the city, the political stakes, and how it all affects the left.
