Episode Synopsis

The Supreme Court’s next major decision could rewrite the rules of American democracy. In this episode, Katherine Harvey sits down with Sara Rohani, Assistant Counsel for the Legal Defense Fund, to unpack the high-stakes Louisiana redistricting case that threatens to gut Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act. Together they trace the fallout from Shelby County v. Holder to today’s challenges against racially fair maps, exploring what’s at risk for representation across the South. From gerrymandering to grassroots mobilization, this conversation reveals how close we are to a voting rights collapse—and what citizens can still do to fight back.
