are going to get the world series because i have either yankees, dodgers, yankees mess both of the awesome for baseball it would be awesome. >> thanks so much, andy. >> all right. first of all, victor blackwell is up next victor, what do you have alright, early voting, kick it off in battleground michigan today, angela rye, tiffany cross, andrew gillum are in detroit kicking off a tour for their podcasts there with us to talk about the state of the race. plus have you seen zelig williams, beloved broadway dance? answer from south carolina been missing for more than two weeks now the last sign of him, an emergency notification from his phone, his family is with us when plea for help. and later a muslim woman arrested during a pro-palestinian protest is suing the sheriff's office in tennessee. she says they forced her to remove her hijab for a mug shot and then published that photo, that woman and her attorney are here all right. let's start the show

crowd in detroit or atlanta is not bruce springsteen or jon bon jovi getting the call, check, vice president harris is itinerary for a guests today. pull it up to a rally with lizzo in the motor city and ursa us are in a her running mate, tim walz, in north carolina, is doing the same thing, campaigning with common 17 days to the election. if the focus on black voters by democrats was not already obvious the campaign says that tomorrow, harris and walz will be each attending services in black churches. god is good all the time. the campaign clearly thinks there's still work to do to get black voters out to vote and trump and republicans, since there's an opening our first guest on this today are the co-host of native land pod, angela rye and tiffany cross and andrew gillum joining us

from detroit. the first stop on their podcast of bring it home tour. tiffany, let me start with you and good morning. i should have invited job on the show long before now, but i'm glad you were on now. so tiffany, let me start here. the democrats concerns their fears of a eroding black support specifically among black men as it overblown victor blood for your show, i just wanted to say congratulations to you and thank you for sintering the rising majority of this country on your programming, but absolutely, it's overblown. and i find it quite offensive to be honest with you, victor, because the people but who are going to impact this election the most when it comes to donald trump, are conservative white voters. the data just doesn't bear it out republicans got 12% of black men in 2020, and they got 12% of black men in 2016. i think when you see reporters asking

black men, the immediate question should be, are you who registered to vote? is you vote in the last election and so i think that's narrative is attempting to lay the failure of this democracy at the feet of black men. and i would no sooner latest on the failure of is democracy is at black men, then i would have black women when it comes to data black women are the highest number ethnic voting bloc for democrats, black men numerically are right behind that. and i think this narrative to be honest with you is because of the demographics of newsrooms. when you look at black staff in droves as you well know, victor, it's 6% when it comes to black women, it's even less than 6%. so i hope that we can we have more on his conversation when it comes to what this demographic looks like. >> yeah. speaking of laying this at the feet of black men and honest conversations former president obama was back out last night. this is the first time since he was in pittsburgh and invoked the potential of

sexism in his appeal to black men to support the vice president angela should there be a course correction because there was so much backlash to that framework was it a mistake for the former president to say what he did or to say it publicly. what was your assessment of what we heard from former president obama you know, i think that it's wonderful that president obama is out hitting the trail for democracy frankly. >> what i think is a mistake is to let white folks escape the accountability that they must face for not showing up to save democracy themselves like they want to get mad at present. presidential candidates, right when they don't wear a flag lapel pin or they don't see you pledging allegiance to the flag. that's what they want to get upset about. now, the face of patriotism to them looks like trying to tear down the capital in a terrorist attack on january 6, 2021 the responsibility of saving

democracy should be on the largest demographic in this country that is white men and white women. i don't want to see a women's march. we put the hat come january if something doesn't go write what i want to see is for them to march their selves i'm to the polls including today. we are in detroit, michigan for an early vote rally in michigan, early voting starts next saturday, which is my birthday, victor. but today in detroit starts today there's a big event at pistons land. we will be adjacent to that admit talking to folks detroit voters about what they want to hear about the agendas that matter to them about the economy, about health care about ensuring that democracy is preserved even if it's not perfect. we're doing our part. it's time for white folks to turn their ire and their intended to each other to ensure they also do their part. >> let me stay with you, angela, on there, and let's talk about what white women and percentage of the electorate that they are. we've got a chart here to show you 2020

black men were 4% of the overall electorate, white women were 32% and voted in a larger percentage for former president trump in 2020 than they did in 2016. that was after the women's march. that was after the appointment of gorsich kavanaugh and barrett. this was after the accusations from e. jean carroll so as we see these zoom calls white women for harris and the money funny erasing and the signs and the population at the rallies. are you confident that there will be any reversal of the trend we saw from 2016 to 2020 among white women or white man, the white dudes for harris, even you didn't know what i will live is i think it's important for andrew. we got a whole episode on this. the karen's in the katie's saying what? needed to say to white voters. i think they need to talk to

each other. but are our resident diplomat may have something different on this, but i would say you should go back in here a very tense and how conversation about this very topic because to me, i'm like, do not at all put that responsibility on us because in exchange, even kamala harris has said that she has to earn every vote, including every black vote and that means a forward-facing, we know that she dropped an agenda this week to the attention of black men. a lot of folks only saw the social media graphic. they didn't see the full nine page plan that it includes everything to what farmers deserve to health care to which types of industries we should get involved in its, i'd love to hear what andrew has to say about going to get the karen's in the katie's and the others, including the white woman for hairs that are being good allies and even arguably accomplices in this month that i don't i'm not i'm not turning my attention to that. >> we are trying to get his zoom like the word to be completely transparent have a monitor. >> i can't see. oh, andrew wants to go get every voter

turnout air because he is the resident evangelist. you said they're going to black church tomorrow. he will be our resident pastor them because andrew believes and going to the highways and byways and everywhere else, i do too, but i do think it is it's so frustrating, victor, i'll tell you. lanard and i were on a panel in austin and, you know, wait earlier this year talking about this every time we go on air, people want to talk to us about what's going on with black voters, what's going on with john? >> just on its an entire democracy that needs to be saved. >> what's going on with brown voters? brown women and brown men? what's going on with asian voters? asian men and asian women, including those who sued to dismantle affirmative action, right? that is not everybody. we are none of us are monolithic the voter interest and what we care about our broad, but we all need to speak me speaking to each other with conviction in about what is going on and what is needed in this moment. and i think it is patently unfair for folks who are overwhelmingly show are disproportionately so for the

democratic party would be saying, well, what happens if democracy is at risk? it shows no, it's not either. you need to be looking at each other. i sit as a handful of republicans that have come to stamp behind kamala harris and tim walz. but what about everyone else there was a moment yesterday, former president trump went into and i listened to the most recent episode and that's why i'm bringing this to you. >> he went into a barbershop in the bronx and i know you have a concern about the media when they go into find black men going only to a barbershop, the breadth of our community and views. let me play a bit of the moment and then i want to hear more your thoughts on that. >> you guys are the same as me. it's the same stuff we were born the same way i grew up in queens and all of that, i mean, you know, it's i had a great father at a father was a great guy. he was tough, but good, big heart, big, big heart and it was a construction guy,

pretty much really let's say guy. and i learned a lot from amused, great, but i know you people so well without knowing you, i know you so well, when i walked in here, i said this is home territory i know you people so well, what what did you hear there? >> and i do want to hear your thoughts about when the media when we go out and we say, we want to talk to black people off in the assignment is go to the, go to the barber shop go to the soul food restaurant, and you'll get black thoughts and black views. what's your thought about what you heard and that approach well, first of all, victor, you've been to the barbershop and you know, good and well, donald trump has not see us for our humanity at all. >> one of our friends, angeles and i had a group chat and one of our friends affected this morning that donald trump is worried about his freedom. vice president harris is worried about yours. he has no interest in our humanity at all, but i want to be clear. i took completely understand and respect the sanctity of space

safe spaces for black people, and certainly barbershops. and here along my challenge to the media is the same way that white voters have cute little colloquial nicknames. we say things like soccer moms and nascar dad. so too can names be applied to black voters when you want to talk to black people, it is not, it should not just be barbershops, beauty salons but there's hbcu campuses, hqs, howard university's homecoming is this weekend. this is the vice president's alma mater. certainly, folks, there of all walks of life are also feel economic backgrounds has something to contribute. then they're also spaces for black voters. yes, churches count as well. but so often you see people going diners in the middle of nowhere when they call flyover states, well, there are places like detroit that's in a quote-unquote flyover state. there's cleveland, ohio. that's an a flyover state so there are different spaces. i would challenge the media to explore and afford us the same depth

and nuance that you have when you give to white voters. and i just want to piggyback on what angela said when it comes to this broad coalition of voters so, somehow, so many racism is bipartisan, don't get me wrong. none of us are mouthpieces for the democratic party. we've always voted for harm reduction, but there are so many pockets it's a voters, the asian-american demographic is the fastest growing demographic in this country. latino voters for the first time have eclipsed black voters when it comes to eligible voters not registered voters. so there's a broad coalition of voters and really what this fight is about that some people would rather see this country burned to the ground before they see somebody who looks like us running and we just refuse it is time for america to bend to the changing demographic. and if it doesn't, we all know what happens to things that don't bend andrew gillum is with us now. >> we got that technical issues solved. let me ask you, you're in detroit for this, bring it home tour 17 days left. is this

the sprint to the end? is it just getting out the vote? or does the vice president still have some convincing to do? >> yeah, it's a good question. i'm glad to join you and i hurt my sisters before i before i was able to join they will have to follow up on this on this growing coalition conversation. and we're white women fit in it, but at this point, i think the vice president is making her closing argument, but i'm not so convinced that there's so for many available voters out there, they still need to be gotten her job at this point. i believe in our job is about turnout, maximizing the folks who we know if they show up will make the right decision for our future and for themselves. but she's got to get out there everywhere politics is the math of addition and not subtraction. and the two candidates in this race is only the one focused on growing their coalition. one focus on speaking to as many americans as they can reach and

that's been vice president kamala harris. and at this stage, job now is to turn out every single person that we believe will get to the ballot box and make the right decision. because i'm victor. >> all right. one more for you before we go. the trump campaign and allies have spent $21 million in ads attacking harris on her past support for gender affirming care. they're rolling it out during an nfl games. they're doing it during the college football games, obviously targeting men in swing states, they think she's vulnerable there. do you think she is andrew i mean, first of all, i what a what a low blow for republicans at this stage to be focused on. >> what is, i don't, i don't know what the exact numbers are, but i would argue maybe less than 2% of the country identify as transgender and democracies are supposed to be here to protect the voices of the minority. and you've got a republican party right now who

have taken target, at practice. at some of those vulnerable people in our community are vulnerable to suicide, vulnerable to assault honorable to discrimination. you see, this is in part what underlies the major differences between these two candidates. one who is for protecting and expanding the voices of people, protecting the voices of the minority to make sure that they're heard. the other one is spending the final days of the campaign not making an argument for the overwhelming majority of americans about jobs economy, including issues that the trans community would very much, they'll find that you're seeing themselves. they're focused on how it is that we demonize and separate and otherize people. and i just think it's a terrible distraction. they'll pay the price for that eventually. but i think this is not an argument for the american people to consider at this stage. >> andrew gillum, angela rye, tiffany cross got to wrap it there thank you all for coming on the show and we'll do it again for you, say to look forward to our vice president kamala harris will face voters and take their most pressing questions next week here on
