Today, we analyze the political landscape around LGBTQ rights, the latest rollback from the Supreme Court on abortion rights, and the clear intention of the Republican party to have control over people's bodies and turn the clock back on civil rights.


Far from falling into the blue or red dichotomy's rabbit hole, today's episode intends to invite you to pay attention to where democracy is heading and to look at the incipient growth of authoritarian tendencies, with groups in power making decisions about the lives of transgender folks, cis women, people of color, immigrants, and virtually every minority.


Jackie shares alarming statistics about people's beliefs, from people who firmly believe the country is run by a satanic cult to others who are convinced that patriots might have to resort to violence to "restore the country's order."


We also analyze how politicians use economic anxiety and the bitterness of those who feel they're missing a slice of the American dream to inflame xenophobic acts, violence, and hate against queer communities.


In addition, Jackie makes a call to action and explains the many ways you can get involved with, assist, and do something to support human rights, even if you live in a blue state or city.


In This Episode, You Will Learn:

  • About the Republican Party's clear intention of legislating over people's bodies (7:06)
  • Some of the most absurd and scary beliefs people now hold (15:39)
  • The need for organizing, knocking on doors, and making phone calls to legislators (18:57)
  • How politicians use people's economic anxieties and fears to manipulate them (22:31)
  • About the alarming tendency to undo democracy (37:57)
  • Jackie reminds us of the need to remain politically active and involved (41:57)
