Episode 100: It’s Like Raiiiiiin, On Your Election Day

This week is a racist kick in the teeth to start 2021. While we should be celebrating the power of the electoral process in Georgia, accomplished only by the work of Black women, we saw the US Capitol sieged by domestic terrorists. Tune-in as we name the prominent anti-abortion extremists who also showed up, and discuss the connection between antis and domestic terrorism.
