Loved this episode...
Revisado: 03-30-22
Love the analysis in this podcast, and listen every week... this week, Jill's comments about her being referenced in a book, led me to look at her photos circa 1974... notwithstanding her brilliant legal mind and analysis, she WAS pretty fly back then... but the more things change the more they stay the same! Thank you #SistersInLaw!

In The Second, historian and award-winning author Carol Anderson powerfully illuminates the history and impact of the Second Amendment, how it was designed and how it has consistently been constructed to keep African Americans powerless and vulnerable. The Second is neither a 'pro-gun' nor an 'anti-gun' book; the lens is the citizenship rights and human rights of African Americans.

Excellent and informative...
Revisado: 02-13-22
A wonderfully written and well narrated text, that offers an elucidating history of the second amendment, its intent to serve as a buffer between white supremacy and black liberty, and how those initial objectives have been practically perpetuated into modern American society... there is no measure of denialism that can refute the obvious facts outlined in this work!

Rosanne Boyland hated politics. She was shy, and she rarely left her home in Georgia. But then her family got a shocking call: Rosanne had died at the Capitol on January 6, 2021, in the middle of a crowd trying to force its way past a police line. From the depths of their grief, the Boylands vow to figure out what happened to Rosanne. Her brother-in-law, Justin Cave, reaches out to an old high school friend he hopes can help: MSNBC journalist Ayman Mohyeldin. The quest for the truth takes Ayman back to his hometown of Kennesaw, Georgia, where he retraces the last six months of Rosanne's life ...

I find it hard...
Revisado: 12-05-21
Very well produced podcast with an extraordinary story... then I thought about how these people sought, and still seek to take the country back to to the racial and social depravity of the 1920-30s if they could! This would mean that me, my family and loved ones would once again be under the yoke of the most barbaric form of oppression, so try as I might, I found it hard to care... This is off-brand for me, but I'll keep listening.

The Reckoning will examine America’s national trauma, rooted in our history but dramatically exacerbated by the impact of current events and the Trump administration’s corrupt and immoral policies. Our failure to acknowledge this trauma, let alone root it out, has allowed it to metastasize. Whether it manifests itself in rising levels of rage and hatred, or hopelessness and apathy, the stress of living in a country we no longer recognize has affected all of us. America is suffering from PTSD - a new leader alone cannot fix us.

A most poignant and timely work...
Revisado: 10-20-21
I said I would read no further books about Donald Trump, but OMG this was NOT that! This book was an AMERICAN HISTORY, unvarnished like that which we might typically encounter in the educational systems of this nation... It outlines with clarity, the pernicious path that led to her uncle's presidency and beyond, as well as a framework for healing and restoration! The book was obviously well researched, exquisitely written and excellently narrated... it was far too compelling to put down once I got started. I generally am always reading 2 books at a time, but this one one of the best I have consumed in quite some time.
Thank you, Dr. Trump!

The Southern Strategy is traditionally understood as a Goldwater and Nixon-era effort by the Republican Party to win over disaffected white voters in the Democratic stronghold of the American South. To realign these voters with the GOP, the party abandoned its past support for civil rights and used racially coded language to capitalize on southern white racial angst. However, that decision was but one in a series of decisions the GOP made not just on race, but on feminism and religion as well, in what Angie Maxwell and Todd Shields call the "Long Southern Strategy."

Elucidating explanation...
Revisado: 10-13-21
A thorough and exhaustive explanation of the decades long quest of conservatives to appeal to white southern voters, after the advent of the Civil and voting rights acts, by exploiting their propensity for racial animus, anti feminism and fundamentalist Christian beliefs, core among them, a visceral resistance to black social, economic and political equality. The work is extraordinarily well researched and the narration performance is excellent...

From 1915 to 1970, this exodus of almost six million people changed the face of America. Wilkerson compares this epic migration to the migrations of other peoples in history. She interviewed more than a thousand people, and gained access to new data and official records, to write this definitive and vividly dramatic account of how these American journeys unfolded, altering our cities, our country, and ourselves.

An American Story, of American Stories!
Revisado: 08-11-21
As American a story, as one will ever hear, yet one that far too few Americans understand, or have bothered to absorb! The author brilliantly weaves the stories of three very different American lives, with common threads, lived in separate places, yet inextricably connected. The courses of the lives span monumental changes in the nation, throughout much of our tumultuous 20th century. It starts out slowly and meticulously, and then compels the reader to continue on. Surely among the best writing I have ever encountered. The narration is also beautiful, and at times almost rhythmic! It is lengthy but worth EVERY MINUTE invested! There are numerous negative reviews, submitted by people who obviously choose not to acknowledge the history herein, or prefer the story not be told - DO NOT LISTEN TO THEM!

Heather McGhee’s specialty is the American economy—and the mystery of why it so often fails the American public. From the financial crisis of 2008 to rising student debt to collapsing public infrastructure, she found a root problem: racism in our politics and policymaking. But not just in the most obvious indignities for people of color. Racism has costs for white people, too. It is the common denominator of our most vexing public problems, the core dysfunction of our democracy and constitutive of the spiritual and moral crises that grip us all.
