Michael James & co-host Euan Hague hear about how the Supreme Court’s recent decision in Louisiana v. Callais upends the Voting Rights Act before they learn about Oath, an organization that analyzes thousands of races to identify the campaigns where additional funding can actually change the outcome, from its founder and political strategist Brian Derrick.
You can buy Christina River’s book The Congressional Black Caucus, Minority Voting Rights, and the U.S. Supreme Court here.
Oath can help you make a personalized plan for your political contributions to make the biggest impact here.
