9:25Now PlayingDr. Greg Carr and the panel sound the alarm after the Supreme Court weakened more protections tied to the Voting Rights Act, warning that Black voters are once again being targeted through racial gerrymandering and attacks on Section 2 enforcement.
Guest host Dr. Greg Carr led a fiery discussion on the Supreme Court’s latest voting rights decisions and the growing fear that Black political power is being systematically weakened through racial gerrymandering and attacks on the Voting Rights Act. Attorney A. Scott Bolden warned Republicans are changing laws to make it harder for Black people to vote, while Thelma Anderson argued the Court is ignoring racial discrimination findings because “they don’t care about the law.” Dr. O-MAY-Kongo Dibinga said the Court and Trump administration are “playing in our faces” while openly empowering white insurrectionists and weakening democratic protections. The panel framed the rulings as another coordinated attack on Black voting rights ahead of future elections.
