Georgia Governor Refuses to Fight 'Racist Prom' (VIDEO)







"During the long fight to end apartheid in the American South, defenders of segregation would frequently dismiss civil rights workers as nothing more than "outside agitators" intruding on communities that did not want them. Nearly 60 years after Brown v. Board of Education, little appears to have changed in the Georgia governor's mansion."*

Students in Wilcox County, Georgia are fighting to end their (still!) racially segregated prom, but one person who refuses to help is Nathan Deal, the governor of the state! Why does he refuse to stop segregation, and why does he call the push a "leftist stunt?" Cenk Uygur breaks it down.
