The NAACP Florida chapter just issued a travel advisory for Black people to not travel to the state. This advisory was released in hopes that Black people will boycott moving to/visiting Florida because of the racist policies set in place by its governor, Ron DeSantis, and white supremacists.
Karen Hunter is joined by author of upcoming book, “BLACK AF HISTORY: The Un-Whitewashed Story of America,” Michael Harriot, to discuss the efficacy of this boycott, and the sentiments Black people should have if they’re in the Sunshine State.
About Michael Harriot:
Michael Harriot is a journalist, author and cultural critic who has been hailed as “one of the most eloquent writers in America.” His acerbic wit, biting commentary, and investigative reporting have influenced everything from presidential politics to pop culture. As the originator of the phrase “invited to the cookout,” his social media posts contextualizing history are shared by millions, while his award-winning journalism has appeared in the Washington Post, The Atlantic, your television, and his mother’s refrigerator. He was one of the first journalists to ring the alarm on the online underground movement called the alt-right, a little-known group called the Proud Boys and was among the first to propose a then-radical idea: student loan forgiveness.
