Podcasts about disenfranchisement

Is the Electoral College under threat? The growing push for the National Popular Vote could fundamentally reshape American federalism and state power. In this episode of The P.A.S. Report Podcast, Professor Nicholas Giordano sits down with Trent England to break down the historical purpose of the Electoral College, the Founding Fathers' constitutional design, and the serious implications of the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact. This conversation explores why federalism matters, how democracy can conflict with individual rights, and what happens when civic education fails to explain the structure of the Constitution. What You'll Learn: Why the Electoral College was a deliberate constitutional compromise, not an accident How the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact could weaken state sovereignty The difference between pure democracy and constitutional republicanism Why federalism protects minority rights and prevents centralized power How civic education shapes the future of constitutional self-government The debate over the Electoral College is not just political. It is a question about the survival of federalism, the limits of democracy, and whether Americans still understand the Constitution that governs them.

Gregory Copley of Defense & Foreign Affairs discusses the US deployment of one hundred troops to Nigeria to counter ISIS and Boko Haram, arguing stability requires addressing economic disenfranchisement from damming the River Niger rather than treating symptoms with military advisors.1910 BRUSSELS

In this host-only episode of Uncover the Human, Cristina Amigoni and Alex Cullimore name what so many people are quietly feeling: collective burnout. As organizations race from one transformation to the next—AI, restructures, new priorities—teams feel stuck on a runaway bus with no stop cord. Change keeps coming, but there's no time to let anything land, no space to choose, and no chance to recover. The result? Disenfranchisement, exhaustion, and a growing sense that work is happening to people instead of with them.With humor, honesty, and a cascade of vivid metaphors, this conversation explores why nonstop change erodes trust, innovation, and psychological safety—and what leaders can do instead. Cristina and Alex argue for the radical (and uncomfortable) idea of pausing: letting seeds grow, creating space to listen, and allowing teams to “be” long enough for real progress to emerge. From hackathons to step-by-step AI adoption, they make the case that slowing down isn't falling behind—it's how you avoid burning everyone out while still moving forward. If you're tired of running and wondering whether there's a more human way to lead change, this episode of Uncover the Human will feel like a deep exhale.

New voting restrictions across the country are threatening to make it harder for millions of Americans to participate in elections. In some states, these barriers have thrown long-registered voters into limbo, as Arizona voter James Wilson learned when he nearly lost his ability to vote because of strict new proof-of-citizenship rules. In this season finale, Democracy Decoded examines how these barriers to voting — along with an administration actively attempting to curtail the freedom to vote and a Supreme Court with voting rights cases on its docket — are reshaping access to the ballot.Host Simone Leeper speaks with election law scholar Rick Hasen and Campaign Legal Center's voting rights expert Danielle Lang to unpack the rise of new barriers to voting, the future of the Voting Rights Act, the dangers of executive overreach, and the policy solutions and reforms needed to secure the freedom to vote in 2026 and beyond.Timestamps:(00:00) — How did one Arizona voter nearly lose his right to vote?(04:35) — Why are federal actions now threatening elections?(06:50) — How do proof-of-citizenship laws disenfranchise voters?(11:48) — What happened inside Arizona's dual-track voting system?(15:32) — Who is most affected by modern voting restrictions?(21:36) — What role has the federal government historically played in protecting voting rights?(23:49) — Why is the SAVE Act so bad for voting rights?(25:16) — What is Campaign Legal Center doing to protect the freedom to vote in Louisiana?(28:38) — What is Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act?(30:06) — What is the Turtle Mountain v.

The Election Commission of India is going to conduct a Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in Bihar. Bihar is due to hold Assembly elections before November22, which is when the term of the current assembly ends. This revision exercise requires all voters who were enrolled after 2003, to provide proof of their and their parents' citizenship, in order to get their names on the electoral rolls. This elaborate exercise is supposed to be completed in two to three months. It has raised many questions, and fears of mass disenfranchisement, and backdoor implementation of the controversial National Register of Citizens or NRC. When does the EC normally conduct an SIR? What was the reason for initiating it now, just before State elections? Are the fears of disenfranchisement justified? Guest: M.G. Devasahayam, a former IAS officer, who is also Co-ordinator, Citizen's Commission on Elections. Host: G Sampath.

Fines of Favoritism - Incorporating DisenfranchisementWebsite: http://www.battle4freedom.com/Network: https://www.mojo50.comStreaming: https://www.rumble.com/Battle4Freedomhttps://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=James%202%3A8-9&version=CJBJames 2:8-9If you truly attain the goal of Kingdom Torah, in conformity with the passage that says, "Love your neighbor as yourself," you are doing well. But if you show favoritism, your actions constitute sin, since you are convicted under the Torah as transgressors.Genesis 37:1 Ya`akov continued living in the land where his father had lived as a foreigner, the land of Kena`an.Genesis 37:2 Here is the history of Ya`akov. When Yosef was seventeen years old he used to pasture the flock with his brothers, even though he was still a boy. Once when he was with the sons of Bilhah and the sons of Zilpah, his father`s wives, he brought a bad report about them to their father. 3 Now Isra`el loved Yosef the most of all his children, because he was the son of his old age; and he made him a long-sleeved robe. 4 When his brothers saw that their father loved him more than all his brothers, they began to hate him and reached the point where they couldn`t even talk with him in a civil manner.Genesis 37:5 Yosef had a dream which he told his brothers, and that made them hate him all the more. 6 He said to them, "Listen while I tell you about this dream of mine. 7 We were tying up bundles of wheat in the field when suddenly my bundle got up by itself and stood upright; then your bundles came, gathered around mine and prostrated themselves before it." 8 His brothers retorted, "Yes, you will certainly be our king. You`ll do a great job of bossing us around!" And they hated him still more for his dreams and for what he said.Genesis 37:9 He had another dream which he told his brothers: "Here, I had another dream, and there were the sun, the moon and eleven stars prostrating themselves before me." 10 He told his father too, as well as his brothers, but his father rebuked him: "What is this dream you have had? Do you really expect me, your mother and your brothers to come and prostrate ourselves before you on the ground?" 11 His brothers were jealous of him, but his father kept the matter in mind.Genesis 37:12 After this, when his brothers had gone to pasture their father`s sheep in Sh`khem, 13 Isra`el asked Yosef, "Aren`t your brothers pasturing the sheep in Sh`khem? Come, I will send you to them." He answered, "Here I am." 14 He said to him, "Go now, see whether things are going well with your brothers and with the sheep, and bring word back to me." So he sent him away from the Hevron Valley, and he went to Sh`khem, 15 where a man found him wandering around in the countryside. The man asked him, "What are you looking for?" 16 "I`m looking for my brothers," he answered. "Tell me, please, where are they pasturing the sheep?" 17 The man said, "They`ve left here; because I heard them say, `Let`s go to Dotan.`" Yosef went after his brothers and found them in Dotan.Genesis 37:18 They spotted him in the distance, and before he had arrived where they were, they had already plotted to kill him. 19 They said to each other, "Look, this dreamer is coming! 20 So come now, let`s kill him and throw him into one of these water cisterns here. Then we`ll say some wild animal devoured him. We`ll see then what becomes of his dreams!" 21 But when Re`uven heard this, he saved him from being destroyed by them. He said, "We shouldn`t take his life. 22 Don`t shed blood," Re`uven added. "Throw him into this cistern here in the wilds, but don`t lay hands on him yourselves." He intended to rescue him from them later and restore him to his father.Genesis 37:23 So it was that when Yosef arrived to be with his brothers, they stripped off his robe, the long-sleeved robe he was wearing, 24 and took him and threw him into the cistern (the cistern was empty; without any water in it). 25 Then they sat down to eat their meal; but as they looked up, they saw in front of them a caravan of Yishma`elim coming from Gil`ad, their camels loaded with aromatic gum, healing resin and opium, on their way down to Egypt. 26 Y`hudah said to his brothers, "What advantage is it to us if we kill our brother and cover up his blood? 27 Come, let`s sell him to the Yishma`elim, instead of putting him to death with our own hands. After all, he is our brother, our own flesh." His brothers paid attention to him. 28 So when the Midyanim, merchants, passed by, they drew and lifted Yosef up out of the cistern and sold him for half a pound of silver shekels to the Yishma`elim, who took Yosef on to Egypt.Genesis 37:29 Re`uven returned to the cistern, and, upon seeing that Yosef wasn`t in it, tore his clothes in mourning. 30 He returned to his brothers and said, "The boy isn`t there! Where can I go now?"Genesis 37:31 They took Yosef`s robe, killed a male goat and dipped the robe in the blood. 32 Then they sent the long-sleeved robe and brought it to their father, saying, "We found this. Do you know if it`s your son`s robe or not?" 33 He recognized it and cried, "It`s my son`s robe! Some wild animal has torn Yosef in pieces and eaten him!" 34 Ya`akov tore his clothes and, putting sackcloth around his waist, mourned his son for many days. 35 Though all his sons and daughters tried to comfort him, he refused all consolation, saying, "No, I will go down to the grave, to my son, mourning." And his father wept for him.Genesis 37:36 In Egypt the Midyanim sold Yosef to Potifar, one of Pharaoh`s officials, a captain of the guard.Credits:https://unsplash.com/@sharonmccutcheon - moneyhttps://www.pexels.com/@gerhard-14620241/ - lightning storm

Guest Hosts: Adam Gardiner and Greg Skordas Adam and Greg round out the day by elaborating more on Utah’s District 2 Congressional election is heading for a recount. The issues with sending in ballots have accusations of disenfranchisement coming in and show discrepancies happening in urban and rural areas within the state of Utah. However there is no excuse for turning in your ballot because of the drop box that is located in every city or the ability to vote in person. Disenfranchisement is a real thing in our country, but Utah is not one of those states. In fact, it is easy to register and vote within Utah. Let’s all not procrastinate our democratic duty to vote for our political representatives.

On the season three opener of Justice Above All, host and Thurgood Marshall Institute Senior Researcher, Dr. Sandhya Kajeepeta explores the state of felony disenfranchisement. Across the country, previously incarcerated individuals are forced to navigate complex, bureaucratic processes in order to exercise their constitutional right to vote. In the past few years, we've seen increased criminalization of voting through new laws and the creation of election policing units, all under the guise of rooting out voter fraud. However, voter fraud is almost nonexistent—less than 1% of voters are suspected of committing voter fraud.  These new tactics will likely disproportionately impact formerly incarcerated people. As a result, felony disenfranchisement laws, which are modern reincarnations of racist Jim Crow-era policies, pose an even greater threat to people's individual freedom and our democracy.Episode Guests: Pamela Moses, Activist and Musician Blair Bowie, Director, Restore Your Vote, Campaign Legal Center Christina Das, Voting Rights Attorney, Legal Defense Fund This episode is produced by Keecee DeVenny, Sandhya Kajeepeta, and Lauren O'Neil.

This podcast originally aired on March 3, 2023. In 1876, North Carolina added a felony disenfranchisement provision to its state constitution with the express purpose of disenfranchising Black voters. Forward Justice Co-Director Daryl Atkinson joins to discuss how felony disenfranchisement harms communities. Atkinson and his team were involved in a lawsuit challenging the provision. While the trial court initially struck down the provision — and returned voting rights to 56,000+ North Carolinians — the North Carolina Supreme Court overturned the ruling on April 28, 2023.

“What am I doing to enfranchise people or how am I participating in their disenfranchisement?" That question, posed by this week's guest, Dr. Marla Dean, to all of us, stopped me in my tracks mid-interview. It has guided her own life and career, first as an educator in troubled and under-resourced schools and then as CEO of Bright Beginnings, a celebrated nonprofit in Washington, DC, that provides childcare and early education services to children and families experiencing homelessness. When I first interviewed Marla in August of 2021, she was deep in the trenches of helping vulnerable families survive an unprecedented pandemic. She powered through but knew she needed to heal, regroup, and continue her commitment to economic mobility from another venue. Now, two years later, Marla introduces us to her new role, leading the Health Equity Fund, a demonstration project launched by the Greater Washington Community Foundation, the region's largest philanthropy. The Fund supports highly effective community-based organizations and invests in policy advocacy, systems change in ways that are innovative and disruptive. With GWCF President Tonia Wellons, Marla is pushing philanthropic boundaries to empower nonprofits and re-enfranchise communities. Marla was raised to be an advocate and it shows.
