Jamil Smith to Black People: Republicans Are Trying to Take away Your Rights

RUSH EXCERPT:

SMITH: "Well, I think you look at the concrete results within their own communities. Look at the fact that a lot of folks are under employed and under educated, and I think that if that’s not enough to motivate them then certainly, you know, the fact that — people are trying to take away your rights. Literally. Trying to purge you off of the voting roll, and it’s one thing to encourage black folks to vote but if you’re not on the voting rolls then there’s nothing you can do. So that’s the thing. We need address this and our elected officials frankly to address these in a systematic level, it's not just about the individual decisions made or not made on Election Day. It’s about the decisions being made for us."
