America the Voiceless
All Americans have a voice, but too many Americans face roadblocks when it comes to casting their votes. People who are waiting to become naturalized citizens, people who are undocumented, people who were once incarcerated and so many others are forced to watch from the sidelines as their fellow Americans vote in the next election. The hosts of this podcast, journalists Maria Elena Perez and Nikki Rojas, speak to lawmakers, historians, non-profit leaders and everyday people to unpack the barriers many Americans have to overcome to make sure that their voices are heard during the voting process.
Love it!

As a first time voter this has been a great show for me to learn more about the past and present of American elections!
Timely and important look at American voting suppression

The erosion of voting rights is an issue that can feel too intricate or far reaching to understand. Nikki and Maria break it down in a nuanced, approachable way that explores many facets of the problem without feeling pedantic. It's as entertaining as it is deeply alarming. This show also does a great job of examining how both Democrats AND Republicans have hindered access to the vote, as well as delving into the unique ways different American communities are impacted by voter suppression. It's well reported, has great interviews, and offers refreshing political commentary from two nonwhite voices. Can't wait to hear more.
Looking forward to more
