It's election day: the time to exercise our constitutional right to vote. While it should be simple to cast a ballot, it's often not. And that's not by accident. The Black vote has never truly been protected, and many states are passing new legislation to actively suppress Black votes. In BGG's Season 9 finale, A'shanti welcomes back previous guest LaTosha Brown, the co-founder of the Black Voters Matter Fund. Together, they lay out the various forces at play in our country that contribute to voter suppression, and discuss why building political power and embracing community is so vital when it comes to turning the political tides. It's no secret that there's a lot on the ballot this November – and ActBlue makes it easy to support the candidates and causes you care about.

Though many view it as an ugly relic of the past, violence against Black and brown folks is still a massive problem in the United States. A'shanti brings on Melanie Campbell, the president and CEO of the National Coalition on Black Civic Participation, to talk about the racial violence epidemic in our country. Much of Melanie's work centers civil rights and social justice with a focus on building Black political power. They discuss the opportunity that the upcoming midterms present to vote in leaders who are vocal about ending the cycles of violence impacting our communities, and why police reform is so needed.AB:It's no secret that there's a lot on the ballot this November – and ActBlue makes it easy to support the candidates and causes you care about.

Not only is the classroom the gateway to education, it's also the first place we learn about ourselves. Growing up, so many Black and brown kids learn not just about math and science, but about racism, microaggressions, and the world through the biases kids – and teachers – bring into the classroom. Lately, conservatives have been buzzing with complaints about the books children are being taught and critical race theory brainwashing children. This politicization of education is rooted in white supremacy. To understand what's happening in classrooms today, A'shanti talks to parent and educator Dr. Erica Buchanan-Rivera who is the Chief Equity and Inclusion Officer at her local school district.It's no secret that there's a lot on the ballot this November – and ActBlue makes it easy to support the candidates and causes you care about.

Gun violence is a uniquely American problem that has only gotten worse in recent years. In 2020, there were nearly 50,000 gun related deaths in the United States. However, in June 2022, gun violence prevention advocates saw a victory when President Biden signed into law the first major piece of gun safety legislation that Congress has passed in nearly thirty years. A'shanti sits down to discuss the gun violence epidemic with Monisha Henley, the Managing Director of State Government Affairs at Everytown, the largest gun violence prevention organization in the country. They break down this year's legislative win and what it leaves unaddressed. With the midterm elections just around the corner, they emphasize the importance of voting in gun sense candidates and holding not only individuals but also the gun industry accountable. It's no secret that there's a lot on the ballot this November – and ActBlue makes it easy to support the candidates and causes you care about.

The economy impacts all of us, but economic issues disproportionately impact Black and brown women. In this episode, A'shanti speaks with organizer Hope Wollensack, who is the founding Executive Director of the Georgia Resilience and Opportunity (GRO) Fund, an organization that advances solutions to racial and economic injustice. In their conversation, A'shanti and Hope discuss universal basic income, break down the racist myth of the “welfare queen,” and get into how giving money directly to Black women can positively impact various outcomes in their lives.It's no secret that there's a lot on the ballot this November – and ActBlue makes it easy to support the candidates and causes you care about.

Youth climate activist Nalleli Cobo grew up in South Central Los Angeles across the street from a toxic oil drilling site. From a young age, she experienced headaches, nosebleeds, asthma, body spasms, and at age 19, she was diagnosed with cancer. Alongside her mother, she began attending meetings and going door-to-door to spread information about the dangers of oil extraction and in 2020, she successfully shut down the drilling site in her neighborhood. In this episode, Nalleli and A'shanti discuss how Nalleli went from being a shy girl to a powerful climate activist, the horrors of environmental racism, and Nalleli's hopes for the future of the climate movement. It's no secret that there's a lot on the ballot this November – and ActBlue makes it easy to support the candidates and causes you care about.

The overturning of Roe v. Wade was one of the most sensational events of the year, though not for the better. In the season 9 premiere, A'shanti sits down with Oriaku Njoku, the new executive director for the National Network for Abortion Funds to talk about what's next following the fall of this landmark decision. They delve into the reasons abortion is healthcare, the importance of Black women's voices at the forefront of the reproductive justice movement, and why it's time for a radical reimagining of Roe. Show notes:Thanks to our sponsor ActBlue. The Brown Girls Guide to Politics Podcast is all about amplifying the voices of women who are too often forgotten in media coverage.

In light of what's happening at the Supreme Court, we wanted to bring you another show from Wonder Media Network called Ordinary Equality. If you are long-time listener of the pod, you know how overturning Roe would significantly impact women of color, triggering arcane abortion laws in states where women of color are more likely to live, and making it even more difficult to access other types of safe, affordable reproductive healthcare. This episode of Ordinary Equality examines the landmark Roe v. Wade case–how it came to be, what exactly it established, and where it's vulnerable to legal attacks.
