Protests, Violence and Voting ft. Omar Wasow

How do protests - both non-violent and violent - impact the public's voting behaviors?  How does the media filter messages about protests to the public?  Princeton professor Omar Wasow joins the show to discuss his research on protests, violence and voting.  We discuss all of the above, as well as how can we compare the protests of the 1960s to today's protest movements.
