This week, Aaron and Doug mark the start of black history month by connecting with Murray State professor of history, Dr. Brian Clardy to discuss anti-DEI efforts in Frankfort and why the GOP is so opposed to diversity, equity, & inclusion. We've also got Doug digging in on the constitutional amendments filed so far... then we\u2019ll close with our call to action.
