NC A&T students lost their campus voting site, so they marched to the polls together. That's the joy @AlexisMcGill told us to bring tomorrow. Black women and women of color are the backbone of this electorate. 💜 thebgguidepodcast.com/pod

“Allow me to reintroduce myself.” 💜 Nearly seven years leading Planned Parenthood, and Alexis McGill Johnson (@alexismcgill) is still on the road, city after city, making sure reproductive freedom stays on the ballot. Planned Parenthood is contraception, STI testing and treatment, wellness exams, and abortion where it is legal. It is care. Full episode: thebgguidepodcast.com/pod

It doesn’t have to be this way, y’all. We can start electing people who are exactly like US to represent US. School bus drivers. Teachers. Fast food workers. Right now, the ultra-wealthy are the ones in charge, so they’re handing themselves massive tax breaks. #AngieForFlorida

As we wrap up our season on Project 2025, we unpack how Project 2025's proposals extend far beyond our borders, with implications for climate change, immigration, and a range of other issues. Thank you to @WayToWinAF for making this season of @thebgguide podcast possible!
