TWERKING for Votes? The SAD State of American Leadership

Rhode Island Democratic state Senator Tiara Mack has come under fire for a campaign ad in which she twerks on a handstand at the beach and then asks for votes. Mack uploaded the video to her Tiktok, getting thousands of views and boatloads of criticism. Mack's critics claim she has set black folks back, and her behavior is inappropriate for a legislator. Mack has responded by saying that her gender, race, and the supposed historical context behind the two justify her actions. She also has claimed that the alt-right is on a smear campaign against her.

In this video, Mr. Watson explains how Mack's twerking is simply one aspect of a larger problem: the death of decorum within American political leadership. He extends this analysis to other leaders, such as Lori Lightfoot who said "F Clarence Thomas," and Barack Obama, to show how the death of decorum manifests in different ways. He explains the danger of this trend and shows how to turn back from it. Watch for more!
