Happy Monday! Sam and Emma speak with Dylan Penningroth<\/a>, professor of Law and History at the University of California, Berkeley, to discuss his recent book Before The Movement: The Hidden History of Black Civil Rights.<\/a>\u00a0First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Iran\u2019s military-specific retaliation to Israel\u2019s bombing of their consulate, Trump\u2019s ongoing hush money trial, FISA renewal, Mike Johnson\u2019s Ukraine package, dropping violent crime and burglary rates, Haiti\u2019s \u201cruling council,\u201d Tesla\u2019s mass firing, and Biden\u2019s polling, before diving a little deeper into the rationality behind Iran\u2019s approach to Israeli violence. Professor Dylan Penningroth then joins, diving right into the personal story behind his decades-long research into the major evolution of Black civil rights as a concept. Stepping back, Professor Penningroth, looks to the 19th-century conceptualization of Black civil rights, with a particular distinction from any political or social rights, carving out a minuscule space in civil society where Black people were given very particular privileges, first contextualizing what these \u201ccivil\u201d privileges entailed (largely relating to low-level contract and property law), before walking through the evolution of these rights in both the reconstruction era and during the subsequent White Supremacist backlash at the turn of the 20th Century. Expanding on this, Penningroth walks through Lincoln\u2019s role in enumerating the ideology of separate political, social, and civil rights in the US (with only the latter needed for true equality), and the consistent pushback from Black activists from the 1830s through the 1960s, insisting that both social and political rights were needed to guarantee the civil. Wrapping up, Dylan walks Sam and Emma through how the mainstream conceptualization of civil rights evolved from the Party of Lincoln to the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s.<\/p>

And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma discuss the Biden Administration\u2019s careful approach to ongoing developments between Iran and Israel, dive into coverage of Trump\u2019s hush money trial (and MR\u2019s potential coverage), and discuss AOC\u2019s growing role in the Democratic Party. Kari Lake, Charlie Kirk, and Ben Shapiro rally behind Donald Trump\u2019s pitch to step back on abortion (at least rhetorically). Mike Lindell gives some major updates on the Democratic plan to steal Texas, plus, your IMs!<\/p>
