The Reagans - Season 1 - Eps 2: Part 2 - The Right Turn

2020-11-2254 min⭐ 6.4/10

A closer look at Reagan’s record on race — and a re-examination of his history as a law-and-order candidate who effectively used racialist codes as a strategy to win elections. The resonances with today’s political landscape and the tactics currently deployed by some in the GOP (and the reaction of the left) are categorical. Nancy starts to come into her own as a political force.
