YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Recently, Andrea Lucas, acting chair of the United States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, put out a call seeking anti-discrimination cases from white men, a striking message from an agency whose historic mission has been defending the rights of historically disadvantaged groups. MS NOW legal analyst and Georgetown School of Law professor Paul Butler tells Charles Coleman Jr. that the Trump administration is "using the bureaucracy and the ideology of the federal government to enforce white supremacy." "It's to foster this sense of grievance and victimization from white men," Butler says, "so they don't focus on how Trump is busting unions and taking away their healthcare."
