Ep 03: The Politics of Black Male Voters

For this week's "The Filibuster," Jemele digs into Black male voters' role in the upcoming presidential election — and calls out Black male athletes voicing support for Donald Trump. Respected journalist and political pundit Roland Martin, who hosts ROLAND MARTIN UNFILTERED, and Michigan Lt. Gov. Garlin Gilchrist II join Jemele to dive even deeper into why Black men are feeling disconnected from the Democratic Party. Lt. Gov. Gilchrist II also shares his story of growing into his unlikely political career, including how youth sports developed his unique leadership style and what he's learned about going out in the community to listen to citizens' frustrations. Also, a SPOLITICS listener asks Jemele: What was up with the San Francisco 49ers player who flashed a Make America Great Again hat on national television?
