Boom! Lawyered

How Gen Z Saved Abortion—and Democracy—in Wisconsin


Listen Later

Abortion. Voting. Trans rights. Clean water. The Wisconsin Supreme Court race had all the rights on the line. And who showed up big at the polls? Gen Z.

For the first time in 15 years, liberals won the Wisconsin Supreme Court race—and they won big.

In a new episode of Boom! Lawyered, Jess and Imani find a moment of joy to offer their analysis on a race that had a lot on the line, like the state's pre-Civil War abortion ban.

Mentioned in this episode:

  • It's Time to Stop Talking About Whether Margaret Sanger Was Racist
