They won: Proposition 22, as the ballot measure is known, now limits their drivers in California to a set of sub-employee alternative perks such as an “earnings guarantee” that doesn’t count the time or gas they burn waiting between trips. Prop 22 also insulates itself from future reform efforts by preempting local laws and requiring that any tweaks by the state legislature comport with its intent and pass with a seven-eighths supermajority. All this has left many drivers feeling stranded in the worst of both worlds—as beholden to bosses’ whims as employees, without the corresponding protections."* Watch the Majority Report live M–F at 12 p.m. EST at youtube.com/samseder or listen via daily podcast at http://Majority.FM Download our FREE app: http://majorityapp.com SUPPORT the show by becoming a member: http://jointhemajorityreport.com We Have Merch!!! http://shop.majorityreportradio.com LIKE us on Facebook: http://facebook.com/MajorityReport FOLLOW us on Twitter: http://twitter.com/MajorityFM SUBSCRIBE to us on YouTube: http://youtube.com/SamSeder ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wUy_IQX8UkE

Robert P. Jones joins Sam and Emma to discuss his book The Hidden Roots of White Supremacy and the Path to a Shared American Future. Buy the book here: https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/The-Hidden-Roots-of-White-Supremacy/Robert-P-Jones/9781668009536 Tracing the narrative of white supremacy in America to 1493 and exploring contemporary communities in Mississippi, Minnesota, and Oklahoma for examples of racial healing, "The Hidden Roots of White Supremacy" proposes a path toward a truly pluralistic democracy. Beginning with present-day efforts to confront the legacy of white supremacy, the book revisits the pivotal year when an obscure church doctrine emerged, influencing the perspectives of European Christians for centuries. By connecting events like Emmett Till's story to the Spanish conquistador Hernando De Soto and linking other historical atrocities, the author argues that the enslavement of Africans wasn't America's original sin but a continuation of genocidal acts stemming from the first European contact with Native Americans. This reframing of American origins sheds light on how mass racial violence became the foundation for the philosophical framework of a democratic society, a paradox that persists today in the guise of white Christian nationalism. Through narratives of individuals navigating these contradictions in various communities, the book envisions a new American future that fulfills the promise of a truly pluralistic democracy.
