A Different Kind of Candidate: Why Hazel Floyd Is Betting on Alabama’s Future at Just 21
Hazel Floyd isn’t running a traditional campaign — and that’s exactly the point. At just 21 years old, she’s stepping into Alabama politics with a message rooted in empathy, inclusion, accountability, and hope for the future.
In this episode, Hazel opens up about what it means to be a young, biracial woman running in a conservative district, how “the collective” became the heart of her campaign, and why she believes Alabama’s future depends on bringing everyone to the table — no matter their background or politics.
We dive into:
✅ Jobs and economic opportunity after graduation
✅ Rural healthcare, maternal mortality & access
✅ Minimum wage, affordability & cost of living
✅ Bridging political divides with curiosity
✅ Being Christian without weaponizing faith
✅ Racism, resilience & leading with grace
Hazel isn’t here for ego — she’s here to serve. And whether you're Republican, Democrat, Independent, or undecided… her perspective may surprise you.
