Trump Vows Changes to History and Art at the Smithsonian; Actor Malik Yoba Speaks Out

The Trump Administration is fighting to detain and deport Cornell student activist Momodou Taal. Taal’s attorneys, Eric Lee and Chris Godshall-Bennett, have a warning about other foreign students they say are being targeted across the country. President Trump says he wants to remove "improper ideology" from our nation's top historical and cultural institution, the Smithsonian. Pulitzer-prize winning historian of African American history, David W. Blight, explains why he thinks this is “a political declaration of war.”   Latino and Black voters could have a particularly important role to play in the upcoming Wisconsin Supreme Court race that’s getting national attention. Victor speaks with Milwaukee County GOP Chairman Hilario Deleon and Angela Lang, the executive director of Black Leaders Organizing Communities in Milwaukee, about their respective outreach.   Plus, Actor Malik Yoba got a lot of attention for saying "I’m no longer a Black man." He joins Victor to explain why he thinks people missed his real goal of sparking a conversation about the ongoing purge of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion.   And later, Lisa France and Victor break out their fans to talk about line dancing and Black joy as an act of resistance.
