Charles Blow has a very interesting idea: Black Americans should move to the South to create political power. If half of the Black people who live outside the south were to move Blacks would become the dominant force in 8 or 9 Southern states with the ability to choose Senators, Governors, Mayors, and reshape our political future. He breaks this down in his new book the Devil You Know and in our conversation about his idea and his entire media mission.
