The Electorette

Who owns public space? Although segregation legally ended in 1964 with the passing of the Civil Rights Act, informal policing of public spaces has continued. Recent viral videos where people of color are confronted in public spaces, are only half the story. From parks, to pools, to neighborhoods, to college campuses, people of color are being policed from public spaces. The podcast takes a deep historical dive to uncover past instances of citizen policing, and seeks to uncover the motivations behind more recent events.

This limited episode podcast is a collaboration created by The Electorette & Dame Magazine

Fatima Goss Graves, the CEO & President of the National Women's Law Center (NWLC), discusses Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg's legacy on the Supreme Court, what that legacy meant for women, as well as, a few of Justice Ginsburg's most memorable decisions. We also discuss the current process to replace Justice Ginsburg, and how it reveals the vulnerabilities in our democracy. Lastly, we discuss how the Bush V Gore decision of 2000 demonstrates why rushing to replace Ginsburg so close to an election, is simply a power grab on the part of Republicans, and is historically anomalous to replacing Supreme Court justices.
