to discuss, this let's bring in former naacp president cornell brooks. cornell, great to see you.l reaction to this latest experience involving a student. >> my initial reaction is reaction of a father with two sons, two african american sons, that this policy is educationally ridiculous and ped godgecally silly. here we have a student missing days upon days of school with an inschool suspension, because of a hair style that is emblematic, illustrative of his heritage, of his african american heritage. and so in other words, we have a school system preoccupied with what's going on the top of his head as opposed to to what is going into his head. so my reaction is, outrage. >> and what do you suppose precipitated this? i mean if you talk about the, i guess the rules, you know, of hair styles, ryan young spelled out there, this hair style does not fall past his ear lobes. if that was, you know, a criteria of what is considered neat hair. his hair style looks very neat. right? and so what would precipitate his suspension? >> so first of all, it seems to me that this policy either as

i'm going to start with you, cornell.'ll be insulted if i call it sort of a motley crue of effective messengers of important voices from across the -- i think the ideological spectrum is a relic, so i won't say that it applies today. but people that maybe used to find themselves on -- in different parties, and our understanding when talking to joe walsh is it's an effort to publicly call out the maga movement as fascist and using that word is deliberate. what do you think? >> i think that this is an important day -- it's funny because i was watching this ad earlier this morning before i got a plane because i was watching focus groups. i think this ad is important because it is something that i think we've brought up before here. because i think it does raise the stakes for those middle american voters out there, right. it is -- we talked about this before, democracy can't just be something that's important and what black and brown people want to hold on to as right. we need middle of the road white americans to have skin
