      Today's episode of @TheBreakdown podcast just went live. It's one of the most important, essential, shocking episodes I've ever recorded and it gets to the heart of what rights we do and do not really have as American citizens. Links and more up next....

      My latest. You don't have a constitutional right to vote. You were probably taught that you did. I was. But the Constitution deliberately left it out. On today's episode of @TheBreakdown I explain this, and explore voting why incarcerated & much more.https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ep-19-should-incarcerated-people-be-allowed-to-vote/id1457725100?i=1000436590915 …

          Listen to today's episode of @TheBreakdown right here inside of Twitter w/ @Spotify. Today, I am breaking down something shocking. The Constitution doesn't really grant any of us the right to vote. And that's why voting rights keep getting abused.https://open.spotify.com/episode/2T7kNg6A7JR5EtQHNQcKQs …

          Claiming the vote as an inalienable right gave democracy to women, renters & black people. However, powerful interests still claim it’s a privilege so they can take away African Americans’ power - from permanent prisoner disenfranchisement to FL’s new poll tax.

          They only want landowners to be able to vote... this nation was built by the rich for the rich... everything the poor working class believe about America is a lie

          We benefit a bit from that part of our constitution being written in 1982.
