Full Frontal with Samantha Bee
Dauer: 4:28
Gerrymandering in Michigan is directly responsible for the Flint water crisis and a surge of white rappers, but the young people of Voters Not Politicians are combatting the former with the latter. Michiganders, flip over your ballot to unfuck your state! Produced by Kaitlin Fontana with Ishan Thakore. Edited by Anthony Mascorro.

It is the way it is because there is no effective opposition to it. Instead, we all need to understand just how toxic gerrymandering is and to do that we need to fully understand - good for you, SB, for this. Please do a show on this at least once a month to educate, educate, educate. This is the only way an informed electorate knows and so, will speak out against gerrymandering when they spot it. Yeah, SB!

The joking about Ann Arbor was bassackwards. Ann Arbor is a diverse and liberal bastion in Michigan, not the white conservative place this painted it out to be. She should have stuck with Grand Rapids, Howell, Traverse City, and other actually white Republican Michigan places.

If the left hates borders so much, why do they insist that Israel is occupying Palestine??? One minute they don't want borders, the next they do. One minute they're preaching "love", the next they're spreading Anti Semitic rhetoric. One minute they're Feminists, the next, they're worshiping Eric Schneiderman. Once minute they're Anti Racist, the next they hate white people. Imagine being a liberal? You have to go day to day being told how to think because it's so hard to keep up.

I hate to say it, and I love the efforts of this woman and others who are working so hard to stop gerrymandering in its tracks, but the history of this country is that as soon as one method of (mostly Black) voter suppression is ended, another one will be instituted. This is how institutional racism works. In the same way that you can't just get rid of some old racists and have America be non-racist (they've been promising that ever since the end of slavery) you can't get rid of one piece of structural racism (e.g., literacy tests, poll taxes) and then be free of structural racism because there are always other racist props ready to spring into action (gerrymandering, voting machines that switch votes from Abrams to Kemp or Beto to Cruz). This is America's foundational history and we can't fool ourselves that it's new with Trump or worse than ever because obviously nothing is worse than slavery and the structural racism that sprang up around it. But it means we do have to look at how these battles need to be fought. Structural racism is the thing that needs to be deconstructed, and that can only happen what Democrats genuinely work diligently to bring Black people of all economic backgrounds to the table. Black people know what the issues are much more intimately than even the most well-intentioned, well-read progessive white folks, and their voices have to be the MAIN voices. I love this video and what this woman and others are doing, but that British woman is right: those are some seriously white spaces that are working to end gerrymandering for mostly Black people. We have to know that formula this has not worked in the past to actually bring down structural racism. Sorry for the long rant. Peace.

Gerrymandering, aka: true voter fraud.

Gerrymandering has been here forever. The difference is it is now done by computer. A much more efficient process than the old manual method. As a result the effects have been multiplied many times over. An odd old system that has made a mockery of out democracy.

Both should be stopped but in this case it's Michigan's citizens trying to un-gerrymander themselves, hence the focus on their ballot initiative. The other states should also be doing this for themselves.

Why you guys don't just have an independent organisation to run your elections and draw district lines I have no idea. Worried about corruption? Make all of the processes they use transparent and have processes to challenge their decisions. For example look at the Australian Electoral Commission - despite plenty of corruption in our government no evidence of gerrymandering - sane districts with no crazy shapes.
