In the spirit of the last stanza of the Black National Anthem, we rise from the past, rooted deeply in the soil of ancestral struggles, to build a home, to claim our space. On Native Land Pod, Angela Rye, Bakari Sellers, and Andrew Gillum guide us through the political landscape, wielding insights and unapologetic analysis, unraveling the threads that connect Black Americans and marginalized communities to a place they courageously call home.

In each episode, Angela, Bakari, and Andrew embark on a journey of reflection, taking stock of the news of the week and the country's road to the polls.

Join us each week as we navigate the dance between past and present, weaving a narrative of hope, empowerment, and the unyielding strength that defines the journey to reclaim 'Native Land.' This isn't just news analysis; it's a movement, a conversation, and a testament to the power of those who dare to rebuild and redefine the meaning of home.

Update on Karmelo Anthony's Trial

Pushing Back on Redistricting

Today’s SoloPod focuses on how communities protect voting power amidst redistricting and fights over electoral maps. 

 

Angela Rye will be joined by Zakiya Mickle, Chief Collective Strategist at The Ubuntu Collective, and Mary-Pat Hector, CEO of Rise.

 

Our guests explain how their grassroots pressure works, and what lessons can be applied to other states facing similar threats, providing a real-world playbook for how to fight back. If you don’t want them to take your voting power… do this.
