🎙️ Episode 20 – North Carolina Politics, Domestic Violence & Gun Laws, and the Fight for Our Future ft. Senator Woodson Bradley 🗳️
In this powerful episode, we sit down with State Senator Woodson Bradley from North Carolina’s 42nd District—one of the most closely contested seats in the country. A survivor of domestic violence and sexual assault, Senator Bradley shares how her lived experience fuels her leadership, advocacy, and fierce fight for public safety, women's rights, and working-class communities.
We go deep on:🔫 HB5 – Constitutional Carry: Senator Bradley shares the chilling behind-the-scenes details of how Republican legislators rejected a common-sense amendment preventing domestic abusers from possessing firearms—sparking her viral video and national outrage.
💥 What Safety & Security Really Means: We challenge who gets to define “freedom” and why our communities must reclaim it.
🗳️ Voter Suppression and Election Power Grabs: Learn what’s quietly happening in NC—from attacks on DEI and education to voter ID restrictions and stripping the Attorney General’s power.
🔄 The Democratic Party’s Identity Crisis: A frank discussion on moderates vs. progressives, whether the party’s message is resonating, and how we reach those disillusioned or misinformed by right-wing propaganda.
🧠Building a Better Future: A debate on whether we can (or should) try to bring back the “middle”—and how we center those most impacted by systemic harm without losing moral clarity.
This episode is raw, real, and rooted in truth.
