About this episode

A nationwide “Day of Action for Voting Rights” is protesting redrawn voter maps across the South. Victor speaks with Georgia Republican election board member Janelle King and Democratic Senate Minority Leader Harold Jones II about the redistricting battle. In Kansas, former Coldwater mayor Joe Ceballos faces deportation after voting in U.S. elections despite not being a citizen. His wife, Jayne, and interim mayor Britt Lenertz react. After President Donald Trump’s trip to Beijing, families of Americans jailed in China for over a decade say their loved ones were ignored during talks with Chinese leader Xi Jinping. Victor also examines concerns that a loophole in the First Step Act may benefit convicted former police officers, speaking with former federal prosecutor Jared Fishman. Later, he interviews seven trailblazing graduates from Spelman College’s Class of 2026. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
