Join us as we explore the pivotal 2024 presidential race between Donald J. Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris, and discuss the question of who Black males will support when the go to the polls.

Our guest, Jamarr Jabari, a supporter of the Party for Socialism and Liberation, sheds light on the complexities of the election, the role of swing states, and the critical importance of community organization.

We discuss the political engagement of Black voters, especially men, and their lean towards third-party candidates in light of pressing issues like housing crises, rent inflation, and police brutality. During the discussion, Jabari criticizes former President Barack Obama for calling out Black men who decline to support Harris and instead plan to back a third-party candidate -- despite understanding that such actions will actually benefit Trump, whom Jabari says he despises.

Dive deep into the U.S. foreign policy’s impact on domestic elections, including U.S, support for Israel, and critique the stances of prominent figures on immigration. The episode also covers infrastructure challenges, such as hurricane management and systemic inequality, emphasizing a need for political reassessment and genuine community support.

Additionally, we introduce the expansion of Jabari Vox Media, featuring new shows on politics, sports, and culture, and preview an upcoming book from Lean to the Left, Hijacked Nation, Donald Trump's attack on America's greatness.

Tune in for a comprehensive and thought-provoking discussion on the current political landscape, the necessity of infrastructure improvements, and the role of independent media in shaping narratives.
