Journalist Wesley Lowery addresses the origins of this so-called ‘whitelash’ happening in America today, and how Black Americans saw it coming long before anyone else.
He explains why in the episode along with the other origins of the “whitelash” that's happening in the country, from groups like the Proud Boys to elected officials—or formally elected officials like Donald Trump.
“All of this backlash remains in the context of people responding to the very idea of a multiracial democracy: what it is, and whether or not we should have it,” he says. Lowery does give credit where it's due, sharing that one demographic did see this coming, though: Black Americans. He also goes over with Danielle the moments in American history where this type of white hate-filled reaction has occurred before.
Plus, the two discuss the ways the media failed to hold Trump accountable during the 2016 election, starting with Lowery's example of how it covered the former president’s nativist “Ground Zero Mosque” fear-mongering he espoused in 2010.
