8.3.2026 #RolandMartinUnfiltered: Faith Leaders Arrested Fighting Voter Suppression. 1,000 Marches Launch. Black Teen Sues Police

It's Moral Monday. Faith leaders and activists were arrested this morning after a demonstration inside the Hart Senate Office Building. The group wanted to meet with Senate Majority Leader John Thune, but he refused to hear their opposition to voter suppression outlined in the so-called SAVE America Act.

There's a rally happening right now to kick off the 100 Days of Mobilization and 1,000 Marches to the Polls in every state. We'll take you there live.

A Black South Carolina teen caught in the crossfire between a suspect and a Myrtle Beach police officer during a 2025 shootout is suing for her injuries.

As folks are getting ready to head back to school, we'll talk to an expert about the best option: trade school or a 4-year college.

August is Black August, the commemoration dedicated to remembering Black political prisoners in the United States.

And we'll talk to an OBG-YN about why Black women are waiting to have babies.
