Episode Description
Today’s SoloPod focuses on how communities protect voting power amidst redistricting and fights over electoral maps.
Angela Rye will be joined by Zakiya Mickle, Chief Collective Strategist at The Ubuntu Collective, and Mary-Pat Hector, CEO of Rise.
Our guests explain how their grassroots pressure works, and what lessons can be applied to other states facing similar threats, providing a real-world playbook for how to fight back. If you don’t want them to take your voting power… do this.
