Once a legitimate civil rights organization, the SPLC was co-opted by radicals who used media and academia to build fake authority. They branded conservatives like Dr. Kevin Roberts, religious groups, school choice advocates, and everyday Americans as hate groups to silence debate. Finding that there wasn’t enough hate to go around, the SPLC is alleged to have begun manufacturing the extremism they claimed to fight. Dr. Kevin Roberts and co-host Larry O’Connor discuss how and why this happened and why institutional renewal is vital if America is to experience a golden age.
