Lost Debate - Ep 24 | BLM GNF Funding, Gerrymandering, Enes Freedom, Nuclear Fusion, Oscars

A recent exposé in New York Magazine outlines the murky finances of the Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation. Ravi, Cory, and Rikki discuss the allegations in the piece. We take a look at an egregiously gerrymandered map in Alabama before diving into the wider issue with partisan gerrymandering nationwide. Rikki shows us a new ad FIRE is running with Enes Kanter Freedom during the Beijing Olympics, and Ravi talks us through a breakthrough in nuclear power. Plus, it’s Oscars season! We discuss the increasingly irrelevant awards show and talk about the nominees none of our hosts have seen.
