In this special re-release, host Saadia Khan sits down with Zohran Kwame Mamdani, recorded back in 2020, just after his groundbreaking win in the Democratic primary for New York State Assembly. At the time, Zohran was a first-time candidate who unseated a 10-year incumbent in Queens, fueled by grassroots energy and a bold progressive vision.
Fast forward to today, and Zohran has just clinched another historic victory winning the Democratic primary for New York City mayor, defeating former Governor Andrew Cuomo in one of the most talked about upsets in recent political memory.
This episode serves as a time capsule, offering a glimpse into the early days of a political journey that would ultimately reshape the city. Please tune in to hear Zohran’s thoughts on identity, activism, housing justice, and what it means to lead with purpose.
