Blackman needs to read Project 2025! The Danger of Project 2025…

hile many have heard Project 2025 is an extremist blueprint for the next Republican president, many have not read it. So we decided to do something about it.

We spoke to Black men in various parts of the community and had them read excerpts from Project 2025 and share their raw reactions. Then we broke it down with the help of UCLA Professor Dr. Tyrone Howard.

The result? A spirited dialogue about how various policy agendas including education, abortion rights, the death penalty and more will directly affect the Black community and why it's a must, we get out and vote.

Columnist Molly Jong-Fast and historian Thomas Zimmer about Project 2025—a controversial roadmap unveiled by the conservative Heritage Foundation outlining a radical vision for a second Trump administration. They discussthe projects plans to reshape the U.S. government, ranging from increased presidential control to dismantling protections for minorities and marginalized groups. Zimmer provides insights into the four pillars of Project 2025, the implications for American democracy, and the potential broader impacts on society.
