A discussion emerges regarding the role of consultants in both politics and media who package marginalized groups to satisfy corporate ESG requirements. These consultants often take significant percentages of funding while reducing creative or political movements to check-box exercises. The hosts compare this to how political figures are managed by speechwriters and PR teams regardless of their personal efficacy.
An investigation into the funding of activist groups like Color of Change reveals they are projects of ActBlue, effectively making them arms of the Democratic National Committee. The hosts discuss how donations intended for social causes are often funneled back into party politics. They use reparations as a "litmus test" to determine if a group or politician is truly advocating for Black interests or just serving the party.
