Necessary Blackness Ep: 72 Why Racism & Voter Suppression Won In The Governor’s Race In GA

Why Racism & Voter Suppression Won In The Governor’s Race In Georgia. I was a victim of voter suppression from the Suppression-In-Chief Brian Kemp under the command of the Racist-In-Chief Donald Trump. After given a provisional ballot, I learned Brian Kemp is the one who determines if it’s valid or not. Before leaving I was given a sticker, but no receipt that I submitted a provisional ballot. The government spends $30 million on stickers to give to voters. 60 million Facebook users posted selfies displaying their sticker.

In this podcast, I discuss the highly contested race, what we need to do moving forward and why voting is just one component of obtaining our liberation. Below is a video explaining my ordeal while trying to exercise my right to vote.
