It Doesn’t Have To Be Like This: with Greg Jackson from the White House Office of Gun Prevention

"It Doesn’t Have To Be Like This: with Greg Jackson from the White House Office of Gun Prevention" by PoliticsGirl
Sometimes we need to take a break from all the criticism of government to acknowledge the importance of government, especially when they’re doing good things. One of those good things was the recent creation of the White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention because as we lose people to gun violence in our country every day, as America is put on “no travel” lists because of our gun epidemic, as we witness our suicide rates and accidental deaths by firearms grow exponentially, we clearly can’t continue to do nothing and the Biden Administration has said “Thoughts and prayers are not enough".

Police: Heroes or Villains? A Conversation with Michael Sierra-Arévalo

"Police: Heroes or Villains? A Conversation with Michael Sierra-Arévalo" by PoliticsGirl
Author, professor and sociologist Michael Sierra-Arévalo talks to us about his detailed look into American policing with his new book The Danger Imperative: Violence, Death and the Soul of Policing. According to Arévalo, the story of policing isn’t the story of a few bad apples, but of an institutional structure and system that is essentially not working. The violence we see from our officers is the logical consequence of an institutional culture that privileges officers survival over public safety. Policing and violence simply go hand in hand, and according to Michael, who’s seen much of it up close and personal, we’re not going to be able to train ourselves out of the problem.

Election 2024 Do More. Worry Less: A Conversation Simon Rosenberg

"Election 2024 Do More. Worry Less: A Conversation Simon Rosenberg" by PoliticsGirl
Something magical is happening. As MAGA doubles down on extremism and chaos, they appeal to fewer and fewer Americans. At this point all they have is their mad king, while Democrats, liberals and anyone who believes in the American experiment has the opportunity to really make America into the country we tell people we are. We have to plan to win, organize to fight, and aim, not just for success, but for growth and expansion. We can do this and we should feel very excited about the opportunities ahead of us.

A New Way to Get the News: A Conversation Courier’s Tara McGowan

"A New Way to Get the News: A Conversation Courier’s Tara McGowan" by PoliticsGirl
Clearly there’s a need for a new type of media, one that exists explicitly to give people facts, but also to protect and strengthen our democracy. Today we talk to the amazing Tara McGowan, founder and publisher of Courier, one of the fastest growing news networks in the country. Courier is a new take on an old format that honors local news with real reporters on the ground, state news where these big federal decisions are playing out, and explanations of the biggest issues of the day the way the majority of people now consume them which is in bite size pieces online. This is a make it or break it election year for democracy, and mainstream media has done nothing but enable the both sides bullshit that’s brought us this close to authoritarianism. It’s time to support a new type of media, and this one is truly worth your support. As always, if you find worth in what we do, please consider SUBSCRIBING to PoliticsGirl Premium.

It’s Not About Being Invited to the Cookout: A Conversation about Anti-Racist Work with Tony Nabors

"It’s Not About Being Invited to the Cookout: A Conversation about Anti-Racist Work with Tony Nabors" by PoliticsGirl
“Anti-racist” isn’t an identity, it’s actions. It’s doing the work of deconstructing the systems of racism we were all raised in. Systems that harm us all. It’s not about being a “good person” or not being called “racist”, it’s about genuinely interacting with the world to make it better. And yeah, we’re going to make mistakes while we do it. We’re going to blow it and get embarrassed, but that doesn’t mean we should stop trying. Ultimately, it’s not about us. It’s about living and growing in a society where Diversity, Equity and Inclusion aren’t just a department, but a way of life. To join me to talk about all this is the amazing Tony Nabors, the owner and principal consultant of Racial Equity Insights who’s spent the past 20 years working to move people and organizations from “hesitancy about racial equity” to confidence, as they learn how to be effective and action orientated allies. This is a great conversation. I hope you’ll join us. As always, if you find worth in what we do, please consider SUBSCRIBING to PoliticsGirl Premium.

"The Supreme Court is Doing What?! A Conversation with Strict Scrutiny’s Melissa Murray and Kate Shaw" by PoliticsGirl
We can’t take our eyes off this court for a minute. Which is why I’m joined by Melissa Murray and Kate Shaw, two constitutional professors and hosts of Crooked Media’s legal podcast Strict Scrutiny, to go over the cases you really have to know. From Donald Trump’s Presidential immunity and ballot presence, to abortion drug access, to the attempt of big money to gut our federal agencies’ ability to regulate, these are things you need to know. We can’t just have justices out here taking perks, and bribes, and cases, only to change our laws without us noticing. These people respond to our attention, so we can’t stop watching what they do.

This Will Help You Vote: A Conversation with Blue Voter Guide’s Wayne Liebman

"This Will Help You Vote: A Conversation with Blue Voter Guide’s Wayne Liebman" by PoliticsGirl
If you look at statistics it was actually non-voters who won the last Presidential election. Too many people think their vote doesn’t count, or as our guest, Wayne Liebman says, they think their vote counts too much and are afraid to make a mistake. The Blue Voter Guide takes the burden out of voting. They do the research into the candidates, ballot initiatives, and endorsements so you can see who shares your values and build a ballot you can be proud of. As Wayne says, “Political campaigns center on specific candidates and measures. The Blue Voter Guide shifts that focus to voters, solving their number one problem, which is ballot confusion.” The Blue Voter Guide not only helps voters make informed choices up and down the ballot, it makes the entire process quick and easy driving up turn out, and it’s turnout that wins elections. You NEED to know about this organization. As always, if you find worth in what we do, please consider SUBSCRIBING to PoliticsGirl Premium.

Israel/Gaza: A Conversation with David Rothkopf

"Israel/Gaza: A Conversation with David Rothkopf" by PoliticsGirl
The crisis in the Middle East, like so many issues that truly matter, is complicated and nuanced and simply won’t fit on a bumper sticker. It’s essential that we look at the whole picture and move beyond who needs to be punished (and many do) to set a goal of creating a place of peace and stability. This is also not an isolated issue. Governments around the world are shifting to the far right and supporting each other as they do it. So, whether it’s Putin, Netanyahu, Hamas or Trump, they’re all looking out for number one, and we need to be supporting alternatives who want everyone to succeed, not simply the select few. At the end of the day we need to hold two ideas in our heads at once. Palestinian people deserve a state of their own, without Israeli occupation, and Israel deserves to exist in safety and security in the midst of a hostile region. It’s an incredibly difficult needle to thread, but a peaceful coexistence is what anyone who believes in the rights of humanity should want.
