On this episode of The Joy Reid Show, we dive deep into the implication of John Roberts and the right wing, neoconfederate Supreme Court’s evisceration of the landmark Voting Rights Act, including immediate moves by Republican states like Tennessee, Louisiana and Florida to eliminate every single Democrat and/or Black-held congressional seat via mid-Census gerrymandering. We also lay out the dangers to the First Amendment as the U.S. slips in the rankings for press freedom.
Our powerhouse guests include Elie Mystal, Gary Chambers , Justin J. Pearson , Jasmine Burney Clarke of the Florida Black voter advocacy group Equal Ground Education Fund and Action Fund, Clayton Weimers, North America Director, Reporters Without Borders (RSF) and Maurice Mitchell, National Director of the Working Families Party.
