    From What's the Plan?: How Trump Is Using Fear to Win
    Oct 12 2026
    We're sharing a special episode from What's the Plan?, a new podcast from Lemonada Media and Indivisible, hosted by Leah Greenberg and Ezra Levin! With the No Kings event coming up on October 17, we wanted to bring this timely conversation directly to your feed. Leah and Ezra break down what's happening in politics right now, what it means for the weeks ahead, and why this moment matters. The Trump regime is trying to fearmonger its way to an electoral win. Our challenge is to take the threat seriously and act with confidence, without handing the regime power it doesn’t have or feeding the cynicism that demotivates our side. In this episode, Leah and Ezra talk about how the regime is ramping up its fear tactics, why that’s actually a sign of weakness, and what our strongest response looks like: No Kings, early voting, election defense, and community mobilization. We’re a little more than a week out from No Kings on October 17, the biggest effort against election sabotage in American history. We’ve all got work to do, and we’re gonna talk about how we all have a role in doing it! To learn more and get involved with Indivisible, visit indivisible.org/wtp

  • Are You Likable? with Alicia Menendez

    Are You Likable? with Alicia Menendez
    Mar 5 2024
    Political media has the power to shape the narrative of a race before anyone has cast a ballot. All of the decisions - who gets covered and how they get covered - are made by an overwhelmingly and disturbingly non-diverse group of media gatekeepers. In this episode, Maya and TV host and author Alicia Menendez discuss ‘The Likeability Trap’ and how the media shapes our political discourse around women of color. Check out Alicia’s book The Likeability Trap: https://aliciamenendez.com/the-likeability-trap/ Learn more about Alicia’s new MSNBC series, The Weekend: https://www.msnbc.com/the-weekend This series is presented by Ms. Foundation for Women, a national public foundation that builds women’s collective power to advance meaningful social, cultural, and economic change for all.

  • But Can You Win? with Mayor Tishaura Jones

    But Can You Win? with Mayor Tishaura Jones
    Feb 27 2024
    When you kick off a campaign, one of the first things people ask is, “Are you a viable candidate?” but what they're really asking is, do you have a real shot at winning? To elect more women of color, early polls, donations, and endorsements cannot be the only tools for assessing the strength of a candidate. In this episode, Maya talks to St. Louis Mayor Tishaura Jones about trusting your intuition, alternative campaign strategies, and how to break through the viability barrier.

  • Are You Authentic Enough? With Mitra Jalali and Cheniqua Johnson

    Are You Authentic Enough? With Mitra Jalali and Cheniqua Johnson
    Feb 13 2024
    When women of color run for political office, they are scrutinized for every flaw. They’re expected to be everything for everyone – they must be authentic, but they can’t alienate broad audiences. They must be youthful, but also mature. The list goes on. In this episode, Maya speaks to two St. Paul City Council members who are ready to change these expectations. Mitra Jalali and Cheniqua Johnson are a part of the first city council in Minnesota history to be composed of all women, and mostly women of color. They are redefining the leadership in the state and beyond.
