Podcast: Tennessee GOP’s political lynching of Black leaders is unacceptable

(RE-UPLOAD – Recorded: Aug. 30, 2023)
A crowd of protestors erupted after Tennessee Rep. Justin Jones was silenced by the GOP majority of the Tennessee House of Representatives for him allegedly breaking a newly-enacted rule about disruptive state House members.

Jones is one of the so-called “Tennessee Three” who were expelled by the Republican led legislature earlier this year.

There is expected to be another protest at the Tennessee House session next week.
