This week, Simon and Julie join John to unpack a powerful mix of history, headlines, and accountability.

They begin by honoring the legacy of Jesse Jackson, reflecting on how he bridged Black and Indigenous civil rights struggles — from supporting Standing Rock to advocating for Leonard Peltier — and how he used his national platform to connect movements that are too often siloed.

Then they turn to Texas, where Tarrant County GOP chair Bo French is seeking higher office after publicly calling for the mass deportation of millions — including Native Americans. They examine what this rhetoric reveals about extremism inside state politics and how normalized it has become.

They also discuss a Georgia lawmaker’s proposal to rename Sawnee Mountain after Donald Trump. The pushback highlights deeper questions about Indigenous erasure, public memory, and who gets honored on the land.

And finally, they close with a troubling but important story out of Hawaiʻi, where Mark Zuckerberg reportedly used shell companies to pressure Native Hawaiian families into selling ancestral lands while constructing a fortified compound. It’s a conversation about power, land, and what happens when billionaires collide with Indigenous sovereignty.
