Episode Details

Tennessee lawmakers passed a new congressional map, splitting up Memphis, the states Democratic powerhouse, during a heated special session. The map was signed into law by Governor Bill Lee, but not without protests and chaos in the House and Senate galleries. The move was criticized as an erasure of Black political power, and a lawsuit was filed by the NAACP Tennessee, alleging it dilutes minority votes. Legal fights are expected, and the redistricting drama is far from over.
