Listen "Grassroots Election Recap: Elite Dems Failed Black Folks and Brought Us Trump 2.0"
Episode Synopsis
Send us a textTrump has won the election—again. But why? Lawrence and Dayvon delve beyond the data, drawing on their on-the-ground experience to contextualize the results. They highlight the Democratic Party’s failures on issues like criminal justice, expungement, housing policy, and maternal health, connecting these shortcomings to voter frustration and the collapse in turnout that cost Kamala the election. They end with a call to rethink reliance on the Democratic Party, which, as history shows, is likely to respond with a retreat to the “rational center” and a rejection of “identity politics.”Support the showIn Search of Black Power is a Black-owned internet show and podcast.
