In this episode, we unpack the 2024 election results and discuss the urgent need for organizing beyond the ballot box. With a Republican-controlled House, Senate, and presidency, what lies ahead is a reality where marginalized communities, especially immigrants and Black, Indigenous, and POC groups, face new threats. We explore how historical patterns of oppression repeat in America and why it’s essential to move from disillusionment to action.
