    Episode 262: Voting When You're Not Excited
    Oct 10 2024
    With election day fast approaching, L. Joy opens up a challenging conversation—what to do when none of the candidates for an elected office inspires you or align perfectly with your views. Last week’s episode addressed voter apathy and how to respond to disengaged voters. This week, L. Joy shifts focus to a dilemma that many voters face: how to engage in an election when none of the candidates seem to represent your issues or values fully. Dr. Michelle Taylor, also known as Dr. Feminista Jones, comes back to the front of the class for this conversation. Then, it’s time for the Arts and Activism segment powered by AKILA WORKSONGS. April R. Silver brings Chief Ayanda Clarke to the front of the class.
