  • Episode 262: Voting When You're Not Excited
    Oct 10 2024
    With election day fast approaching, L. Joy opens up a challenging conversation—what to do when none of the candidates for an elected office inspires you or align perfectly with your views. Last week’s episode addressed voter apathy and how to respond to disengaged voters. This week, L. Joy shifts focus to a dilemma that many voters face: how to engage in an election when none of the candidates seem to represent your issues or values fully. Dr. Michelle Taylor, also known as Dr. Feminista Jones, comes back to the front of the class for this conversation. Then, it’s time for the Arts and Activism segment powered by AKILA WORKSONGS. April R. Silver brings Chief Ayanda Clarke to the front of the class.

  • Episode 261: Combating Voter Apathy
    Oct 10 2024
    This episode of Sunday Civics, L. Joy tackles voter apathy. It’s an issue that arises every election season but is relevant year-round. She addresses common myths that fuel political disengagement and explains why participation in elections at all levels is crucial. Emphasizing that while voter turnout is higher during presidential elections, it significantly drops during midterms and local elections, leaving critical decisions to a small, active group, L. Joy encourages listeners to combat this by making a voting plan and engaging with non-voters, highlighting the importance of civic engagement and empowering people to vote. Then April R. Silver brings Dr. Tameka Hobbs to the front of the class for the Arts and Activism segment powered by AKILA WORKSONGS.
