On this week’s episode of Poll Hub, what are Americans’ perceptions about race relations in the United States? Has their outlook changed? Do Americans approve of how President Joe Biden is handling the issue, and do they think future generations will be able to bridge the racial divide? We analyze the results of the latest national NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist Poll.

Then, the NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist Poll also released new numbers on the COVID-19 pandemic. The podcast crew dives deep into the numbers to explain the latest figures on vaccinated Americans and what those numbers mean in light of the CDC’s recently announced, relaxed mask-wearing guidelines for vaccinated Americans.

And, turn off your television because Lee has another fun fact! Wait, do you even have a TV? You don’t want to miss this one.
