Political Activist and SiriusXM Host Joe Madison on How the Ordinary Person Can Make A Difference
October 31, 2019
Longtime political activist and host of SiriusXM’s “The Joe Madison Show,” Joe Madison has mastered the art of dealing with Russian trolls. “We were targeted by the Russians during the 2016 campaign,” he explains in an interview with LA Sentinel. “We started getting calls from all these Black folks who would try to encourage my audience not to vote. They’d say, ‘if your candidate doesn’t win the primary don’t vote. The political party that you are loyal to isn’t loyal to you, so don’t vote. The constitution doesn’t benefit you as a Black person so don’t vote.’ It was a constant barrage.”
