Description

America, you in danger, girl! In this special 4th of July episode of the Late Learner Podcast, I take on the big issues around our freedoms in the U.S., especially with recent political events and Supreme Court rulings. I start with a look at the meaning of Independence Day and the freedoms our ancestors fought for, but also voice my worries about the current state of our liberties.

We revisit a fiery discussion from when Roe v. Wade was overturned, stressing the need for action over just expressing outrage. I break down four key steps to make an impact: energizing people, getting deeply organized, having a detailed plan, and gathering resources. Many organizations like Planned Parenthood and Emily's List are already on this, and I urge listeners to support them.

I also share personal stories about my own political activism, the importance of turning anger into action, and staying engaged. I offer ten practical ways to get involved, from helping reproductive justice organizations, opening your home to those in need, normalizing conversations about abortion, and supporting pro-choice candidates.

Happy 4th of July!
