My latest at Pajamas Media: Why the Left Shouldn’t Defend the New Black Panther Dismissal. I’ll be discussing the article and the case on a number of radio stations and shows, scroll down for details:
“There are two important reasons why those defending the dismissal of the case through personal attacks should stand down.
Firstly, not only will the attacks prove absurd as more and more truth emerges about the matter, but the dismissal creates an unwelcome and dangerous factual floor in defining future voter intimidation. It is a floor we should fear, because it makes future cases harder to bring. Secondly, the dismissal undermines broad support for important voting rights protections as the nation becomes more racially diverse.
Neither outcome is what the defenders of the dismissal want, and they should reconsider their rabid attacks.”
