About this listen

In this episode, Hendrell breaks down how the Supreme Court’s rollback of Voting Rights protections has enabled partisan redistricting in Tennessee and across the South allowing Radical Republicans to split Memphis into three Republican controlled congressional districts, diluting Black political power, and reshaping democracy through engineered maps instead of delivering for the people.

The episode connects the modern tactics to a long history of voter suppression, explains the stakes for representation and public resources, and issues a clear call to action: organize, register, and turn out voters to defend equal representation and win in upcoming elections.
