As an American citizen, I am gratified to hear that a Georgia special grand jury has recommended indictments against more than a dozen people for election fraud. But as a former prosecutor, I am mortified that a grand juror is talking about it publicly.
On Tuesday, Emily Kohrs, the foreperson of the special grand jury in Fulton County, went on a media tour of sorts, giving interviews to NBC News, The New York Times, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution and other news outlets, and she is apparently enjoying her moment in the spotlight. This is a preview of Barbara McQuade's latest article. Read their full column here. |

'Black History, Uncensored' is a ReidOut Blog series that highlights work by Black creators targeted by GOP bans.

This Black History Month, "Into America" celebrates the 50th anniversary of hip-hop with a special mini-series, "Into America presents Street Disciples: Politics, Power and the Rise of Hip-Hop." Hosted by Trymaine Lee, the series explores how our country's political and economic forces shaped half a century of hip-hop, and how over time, hip-hop shaped the country.
In episode four, Trymaine explores how in the late 90s, mainstream hip-hop had largely begun to shed its political messaging. Then, the backlash against a Republican government brought politics back to hip-hop once more, leading to the mobilization of a generation and the first hip-hop president: Barack Obama.
