This Racist Video Fooled Millions — Here’s the Truth (Find Out podcast on YouTube)
In this episode of Find Out, we’re joined by civil rights attorney Qasim Rashid to tear apart a right-wing propaganda video designed to inflame fear, spread disinformation, and turn an immigrant community into a political weapon.
