How Obamas Presidency Kicked Off Todays White Violence
Wesley Lowery, Pulitzer Prize winning journalist and author of American Whitelash: A Changing Nation and the Cost of Progress, joins co-host Danielle Moodie in this bonus episode of The New Abnormal podcast to talk about the origins of this so-called \u201cwhitelash\u201d happening in America today, and how Black Americans saw it coming long before anyone else. He touches on the Obama presidency\u2019s role in this scary trend as well as the media\u2019s role in it all, starting with how it covered Trump\u2019s nativist \u201cGround Zero Mosque\u201d fear-mongering he espoused in 2010. And as always, Danielle and Andy Levy kick off the episode by responding to clips of Republicans saying dumb things.
