Politics War Room ON TOUR  - live shows in NYC on 9/19, Atlanta on 10/12, and Boston on 11/2 at politicon.com/tour 

James and Al welcome former AFL-CIO political director Michael Podhorzer to discuss the current poll numbers and where the Harris campaign should focus. They explain the importance of the Black vote, winning over non-college-educated voters, and ensuring people turn out when a few thousand votes could decide the election. Then, they’re joined by the author of “The Barn”, Wright Thompson, to explore the events surrounding the murder of Emmett Till, the history of the cotton industry and its impact on the Civil War, and the ongoing battle for the soul of the South.

Email your questions to James and Al at [email protected] or tweet them to @politicon.  Make sure to include your city– we love to hear where you’re from!
