🎧 #AudioForAction Guest Curation: Nationly
Election issues that matter to minority communities
At Nationly, we care deeply about the “Why?” behind political issues that really matter to minority communities—immigrants and communities of color—specifically in the battleground states at the heart of this year’s election season. By focusing on minority communities and exploring key defining moments in the lives of these voters, we believe that we can provide a comprehensive view of America's political spectrum and the diverse voices shaping it. The episodes in this list discuss issues that impact minority communities across the country and contribute to a fuller understanding of what voters have on their minds.
