6.26.2024 #RolandMartinUnfiltered: Shelby Co. v. Holder: 11 Years Later, GA Judge Booted From Bench, CNN Denies Black Media From Debate

Today is the eleventh anniversary of Shelby County v. Holder, the Supreme Court decision that significantly weakened the 1965 Voting Rights Act. We'll look at what lawmakers had to say and talk to Melanie Campbell, the President and CEO of the National Coalition on Black Civic Participation, about the holdup in passing the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act.

The Supreme Court says it's not a crime for state and local offices to take gifts valued at more than $5,000 from donors who benefitted from an official's efforts. 

New York Congressman Jamaal Bowman loses his re-election bid.

A Georiga judge gets removed from the bench after alleged assaulting a police officer. 

Louisville, Kentucky's first black female police chief resigns after mishandling a sexual 
harassment claim. 

NFL Hall of Famer Emmitt Smith says Reggie Jackson's recent comments are proof that DEI programs are needed.

And I have some words for CNN about not giving black-owned media access to Thursday night's debate.
