This week on the Catchup, it's what some say is an attempt to intimidate voters, deter participation, and stoke fears of  voter fraud without actual proof. Hervis Rogers from Texas voted in the 2018 midterms, and 2020 Democratic Primary. Rogers spent time in jail for a burglary in the 90s, and was on parole from 2004 to June 2020. But under Texas law, parolees cannot cast a ballot. So, Rogers was arrested  and charged with two counts of illegal voting, a felony. He was held on $100k bail, and could face up to 40 years in prison (20 for each charge).But Rogers claims he didn't know he was voting illegally, setting up an interesting legal battle considering state law requires the accused to "knowingly" be voting illegally to be found guilty. But there's an extra layer to this.  Despite voting in the Texas Democratic primary more than a year ago, Rogers was only charged this week as the Texas Legislature discusses bills that could limit voting access.The Governor has also been critical of - without evidence - widespread voter fraud in the last election. Combine this with the fact that Rogers - who was profiled on national newscasts during the Primary after waiting in line for hours to cast his ballot  - and you critics saying Rogers' arrest was motivated by politics, not election integrity.There's a lot to break down, including why Rogers is NOT being charged in the county he voted in, so let's get into it.

With one week to go until the 2020 Presidential Election, Hiba and Chevon bring you an election season-themed episode for you to listen to as you make plans to vote [before, or on] Tuesday November 3rd!  In this episode, Chevon and Hiba are joined by Nicole Porter, Director of Advocacy for The Sentencing Project,  who talks about the newly-released report Locked Out 2020: Estimates of People Denied Voting Rights Due to a Felony Conviction. The report reveals “5.2 million Americans [that] are forbidden to vote because of felony disenfranchisement, or laws restricting voting rights for those convicted of felony-level crimes.” Nicole also talks about her work managing The Sentencing Project’s state and local advocacy efforts on sentencing reform, voting rights, and eliminating racial disparities in the criminal justice system, and provides personal anecdotes to highlight the importance of each of these topics.  Hiba and Chevon also discuss recent events in culture in the lead-up to the presidential election, including Ice Cube’s recent controversial meeting with the Trump Administration to promote his “Contract With Black America”, and P. Diddy’s endorsement of Vice President Joe Biden––a reversal from his “Hold The Black Vote” stance earlier this year. In this context, Chevon talks about the importance of creating your own advocacy efforts and how voting is “one lever we can pull” in the broader fight for racial justice.  Also, BIG.

Journalist Yamiche Alcindor tells host María Teresa Kumar, ‘Now we see something unfolding in the U.S. you do not see in other developed nations. Higher death rates, and a federal government that is upended because it could not protect itself from the virus.’ AND: Donald Trump’s Covid-19 diagnosis could invoke the 25th amendment to the Constitution, which ensures a smooth transfer of power to the vice president, even if only temporary, in case the president is incapacitated. Vice President Mike Pence receives advice on why some experts believe drafting a plan to transfer power in case of an emergency is critical to fulfilling his duties to the American people, which presidential historian Michael Beschloss asserts. PLUS: Voter suppression fears are discussed by Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison, and Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel. ‘If individuals want to... mislead voters into thinking there'll be negative consequences for [voting] they're going to find themselves behind bars,’ Nessel tells María Teresa Kumar. ALSO: Former Gov.

Wir haben uns daher sehr gefeut, dass die aktuelle Lage ihn dazu gebracht hat, uns zu fragen, ob wir nicht eine zweite Folge aufnehmen wollen. Danke, lieber Julius für die Initaitive und diese geile Folge! Wir waren uns schnell einig darüber, dass die Exekutive in Krisen, wie wir sie aktuell haben, immer im Vorteil ist. Eine Frage die wir diskutiert haben: Warum gelingt es unserer Kanzlerin, die sich ja anders als Donald Trump nicht zur Wiederwahl stellt, besser als dem aktuellen US Präsidenten, ihr Vorgehen in hohe Zustimmungswerte für ihre Arbeit umzuwandeln? Für Julius begann das Jahr mit einem Flug nach Iowa, wo er die US-Vorwahlen besuchen wollte. Sein Ziel, alle Kandiaten der Demokraten kennen lernen und auch einmal bei einer Trump Veranstaltung dabei sein. Die ersten Vorzeichen der Corona Krise waren spürbar, aber die Entwicklung wurde komplett falsch eingeschätzt: “The Corona Viris is a Hoax!” so sah es Donald Trump noch vor wenigen Wochen. Wir sprechen mit Julius über spannende Themen wie “Voter Supression”, “Gerrymandering” und “Relational Organizing”. Was das ist?

It's been a big couple of weeks in politics in the US. There's beenTrump's State of the Union address and his 'Oprah Moment' as Donald puts it. He's survived an Impeachment and emerged triumphant from the ordeal. And there was the shamozzle that was the Iowa Caucus, where an app that appears to be Shadow by name and shady by naturepretty much screwed any chance of a victor being crowned in time to take advantage of the news cycle. Depending on if you're a glass half full or empty person, it was either the Bernie Blackout machine in full spin cycle, or simply a display of a quaint but outdated and unrepresentative caucus process in a blindingly white state that no-one really pays much attention to in terms of results. Hmmm... Our special guest is Kevin Myles from the NAACP -  the biggest civil rights organisation in the US, which has a history of supporting people of all colours and creeds to overcome oppression at the local level for more than 100 years. Kevin doesn't hold back on giving us his take on the current state of play in American politics and the moment and why the work of committed volunteers staffing his organisation in every community across the country is more important than ever. Despite Donald's valiant attempts, he won't give up his preferred candidate for the Democratic Party, but he's on a mission to ensure that votes of all colours and persuasions are motivated and mobilised to participate in this year's election. In an exciting twist, his Mensa membership (exceptionally high IQ) bestows Greenland with its first-ever 'cuss' word, which is both absolutely thrilling and also mildly terrifying, as in, do we need to tick the 'explicit content' warning box for this episode? Goshdarnit Kevin! Jim from the States also wrote in with a question for our 'Mail segment'. It's one for Diana this time, wanting to know what the hell 'freelance writer' means, which is something Diana has been trying to work out herself for approximately 15 years...Diana’s published articles in The Australian, The Age, Sydney Morning Herald and the ABC online can mostly be found here.She also founded and is director of Resonance Communications, which provides strategic and creative communication services to clients in the government, corporate and non-profit sectors.About our special guest, Kevin Myles Kevin currently serves as the Southeast Regional Field Director for the NAACP, providing training, guidance, and assistance to more than 600 active units throughout the States of Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee. During his tenure on the National Staff, Kevin has also served as the Mid-Western Regional Field Director, and a term as the Interim National Field Director. As a member of the National Field Team, Kevin has played an integral role in the development and execution of several National campaigns for justice, including the campaigns for Trayvon Martin, Jordan Davis, Michael Brown, Freddie Gray, National and State level ‘Stand Your Ground’ Legislative reform efforts, the March on Washington, and the 1,002 mile America’s Journey for Justice march for Voting Rights, to name a few. Prior to joining the National Staff, Kevin served as President of the Kansas State Conference of the NAACP, and served 9 years as the President of the Wichita Branch NAACP where he was the recipient of 8 National Thalheimer Awards for outstanding NAACP unit activity.
