Black Agenda Radio · Protecting the 14th Amendment, Citizenship, Due Process and Equal Protection

Donald Trump's executive order challenging birthright citizenship also endangers the 14th Amendment guarantees of due process and equal protection. DaMareo Cooper is co-executive director of Popular Democracy. We discuss the legal implications of changes to the 14th Amendment, which also involve protection for marriage equality, abortion access, and interracial marriage, issues that seemed to be settled. DaMareo Cooper joins us from Akron, Ohio.
