What can a 90s kids’ movie tell us about the redistricting battle?
Manage episode 521803173 series 2640651
When the Missouri legislature began to redraw maps mid-decade, it reminded a reporter of a very specific movie scene.
The film was Air Bud, and although the plot focuses on a loophole that allows a dog to play basketball, some in Missouri say there are similarities to the battle over gerrymandering, and the result could have a lasting impact on the state’s government. Miles Parks speaks with St. Louis Public Radio's Jason Rosenbaum.
