51:26Now PlayingThe powerhouse behind some of the South's most decisive elections joins Maya and Michael to discuss the fight for voting rights in 2024. LaTosha Brown co-founded Black Voters Matter, which played instrumental roles in key races including Doug Jones' 2017 Alabama Senate victory and the pivotal 2020-21 Georgia elections that helped flip the state.
With new election certification rules creating uncertainty in Georgia and other battleground states, Brown warns that Republican leaders may not work expeditiously to certify votes as they should be. She's been fighting what she calls "the blueprint of voter suppression" — laws that restrict drop boxes and create new barriers to voting access.
From her roots in Selma — where her enslaved ancestors were brought and where she found her passion for organizing — to Harvard's Kennedy School, Brown brings both personal history and political strategy to the urgent question: Can democracy survive another contested election?
Don't miss this essential conversation with one of America's most influential voting rights strategists.
