The Real Reason The System Is Broken (It’s Not Who You Think) | Graham Elwood

In this video, Graham Elwood examines a Los Angeles Times column by George Skelton criticising young Californians and minorities for low voter turnout. Graham critiques the finger-wagging establishment narrative, the systemic barriers to voting (such as voting on a workday), economic struggles facing the working class and minorities, the disillusionment caused by the rigged 2016 Democratic primary, and the failure of the corporate duopoly to serve working people.
