Soledad O'Brien + Desmond Meade

Politically Re-Active with W. Kamau Bell & Hari Kondabolu

Desmond Meade, who led the campaign to restore voting rights to the formerly incarcerated in Florida, returns to talk about Gov. Ron DeSantis's decision to deny him a pardon and renewed threats to democratic participation in his state. But in spite of it all, Desmond's excitement about people exercising the franchise is infectious.

Then, Emmy-winning journalist Soledad O'Brien is ready to Disrupt & Dismantle structural racism in her new BET series—and to call out cable news for its role in spreading disinformation.

Plus: Hari admits that for him "new music" means Baby Beluga, and Kamau reveals The Goal of Life.
