Summary

Lurie breaks down the Supreme Court's dismantling of the Voting Rights Act and asks the question nobody wants to face: if they're rebuilding the slavery apparatus, why would they stop before finishing? From passports as freedom papers to economic self-sufficiency, this is about real preparation—not fear. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
