This video is what happens when you get a Georgian and an Alabamian together for straight talk about democracy. Stacey Abrams is one of the most honest and profound voices in American politics. I left our conversation concerned, moved, motivated, and uplifted. She’s just that good—she does all the things.
If you missed us live, click above to listen to the recording.
Stacey has just started her own Substack, Assembly Notes, and her first two columns are bangers whose message will stick with you. Assembly notes is going to be essential reading.
Thank you Phyllis Haynes, Louise Haynes, Jenny Benjamin, Sioux Fleming, progwoman, and thousands of others (I lost track because I was busy listening to Stacey) for tuning in!
Join me tomorrow at 1 ET, 12 CT, when Dahlia Lithwick will be with us to discuss the Supreme Court in general and any decisions we get from them in the morning, which is a newly announced “opinions day.”
If you’ve got questions for Dahlia and me, please drop them here.
We’re in this together,
Joyce
