The New Terms & Conditions of Black Voting Rights ft. Tiffany Cross | Native Land Pod 129

On episode 129 of Native Land Pod, hosts Angela Rye, Andrew Gillum, and Bakari Sellers are joined by the one-and-only TIFFANY CROSS!!

Renowned journalist, author, and former-NLP host, Tiffany Cross, rejoins the crew for a day to talk about the ongoing redistricting war AND tell us about her new book Love, Me.

The redistricting wars swung in the direction of Republicans at the Supreme Court this week. SCOTUS heard arguments in Louisiana v. Callais, and allowed Louisiana to redraw its electoral map, removing a majority Black district, and rewriting the Voting Rights Act. This bellwether case will probably inspire similar redistricting moves in other Southern states. Our hosts take a look at how this affects the midterms and Black representation in Congress.

The last decade of Tiffany Cross’ life has seen heartbreak and betrayal, moving through failed relationships at the same time her country turned its back on her. Her new book, Love, ME is a letter to Black women in a toxic country, career, and relationship. Find it wherever books are sold.
