Jamelle Bouie: The Supreme Court Is Corrupt | The Moment
After the Supreme Court gutted the Voting Rights Act last week, November’s midterm elections will be unlike any in recent memory. For New York Times columnist and YouTube commentator @jamelle-bouie, the decision reveals something deeper: the Court’s discomfort with racial minorities exercising power through political representation.
In this episode, Jorge and Paola sit down with Bouie to unpack that idea, along with his broader claim that the Supreme Court is fundamentally corrupt. He also traces the origins of the Voting Rights Act in the Civil Rights Movement, explains why it still matters today, and breaks down how these changes could affect Black and Latino voters this November and beyond.
