54 分钟Hey, Jane here. The What A Day team is off today,
but we're leaving you with something worth your time.
It's an episode of Assembly Required, hosted by the one and only Stacey Abrams.
In this episode,
Stacey teams up with Rachel Maddow to break down the first 100 days of Trump's return and how history shows we've beaten back fascism before.
From past resistance to present threats,
this is your crash course in how democracy survives when people rise up to defend it.
It's a conversation about how change actually happens in this country and how to be a part of it.
Because I think that nothing is more important than knowing how you can make something better,
not just how bad something already is.
If you love the show as much as I do,
make sure to subscribe to Assembly Required with Stacey Abrams on YouTube or wherever you get your podcasts.
