If you’re wondering what people mean when they mention the Republican Party’s “Southern strategy,” well, first off, you should’ve paid more attention in government class, and secondly we apologize for being a jerky know-it-all just then, and thirdly you should go ahead and watch this video from Full Frontal with Samantha Bee because she can explain it a lot more succinctly and hilariously than we can. She explains how back in the 1960s and ‘70s the GOP started to appeal to the racism that can be found in the South in order to win elections, and uses a pretty popular TV show to makes her point. It’s worth the two minutes it takes to watch it, so click that little arrow already.
