No Dick-tators + “Move to California!” and Other Bad Alabama Arguments
Josh Moon and David Person dive into Alabama’s culture of political groupthink and why it may be keeping the state at the bottom of nearly every meaningful ranking. They’re joined by Phillip Ensler to talk hospitals, public schools and public safety, plus guests from the Southern Poverty Law Center on the Emmett Till exhibit and Days of Democracy. The episode also features candidate Hanu Karlapalem on immigrant political rights and closes with the absurd Fairhope “penis costume” arrest.
