Replacing Post-Roe Helplessness with Action (with Leslie Mac)

Many of us were left with far more questions than answers when the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade this summer. A campaign called Day Without Us, happening on September 30th, is an opportunity to learn more about the fight for reproductive justice in America. Gloria and Leslie Mac, one of the organizers of this national teach-in, discuss how you can participate in Day Without Us, how to continue doing the important work afterwards, and why we need to think of other social justice issues like housing and food insecurity as part of reproductive justice. Plus, Gloria surprises Leslie at the end of their conversation by asking her about her favorite band.   This podcast is presented by Neighborhood Villages, and is brought to you with generous support from Imaginable Futures, Care For All Children by the David and Laura Merage Foundation, and Spring Point Partners.   Joining Lemonada Premium is a great way to support our show and get bonus content.

Dive into the heart of America's childcare crisis with No One Is Coming to Save Us, hosted by veteran reporter Gloria Riviera. In Season 5, you’ll hear stories about everyday people rolling up their sleeves to demand better childcare in America, whether it’s guaranteeing access for all kids ages zero to five, creating supportive services for families, or ensuring the highest quality education possible. The goal? A unified roadmap that gives us the language, knowledge, and power to advocate for the system our kids deserve  – whether that’s at the ballot box, the PTA meeting or in conversation with our community leaders. This series is created and produced with Neighborhood Villages, a nonprofit dedicated to transforming child care through innovative program-building and policy design.
