We often separate voting blocs by race — we talk about “the Black vote,” “the Latino vote,” “the White vote,” “the Asian-American vote.” but in reality, these are all big — often disparate — groups of people. So this week, to close out Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islanders Month, we wanted to do a deep dive on the AANHPI voting bloc. Niala Boodhoo, host of Axios’ 1 big thing, helps us understand this voting bloc.

In the summer of 2022, the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. Millions of Americans were stripped of various forms of reproductive health care. In her new book, “Undue Burden: Life and Death Decisions in Post-Roe America,” Shefali Luthra covers the experience of those impacted. *Spoiler alert: we’re all impacted*. As the gender and health care reporter for The 19th, Shefali joins the show to discuss the fallout of the Dobbs decision and what the future of reproductive health care looks like.

The novel “Parable of the Sower” by Octavia Butler begins in the year 2024 – in a world where democracy is at stake, a climate crisis rages, and extremist politicians are on the rise. Octavia Butler published her book in 1993. So … how did she predict the future? And what can her writing teach us about the world we live in today? Octavia Butler scholar Dr. Ayana Jamieson joins the show to help Errin answer these questions – and more.

Over the last 40 years, evangelical Christians have become an influential voting block. White evangelical support for Donald Trump exceeded 80 percent in the 2016 election. The intensifying politicization of the evangelical movement has been too much for some, and many are leaving the church. To understand the voting patterns of evangelicals and the exodus of young evangelicals, Errin chats with Sarah McCammon, a national political correspondent for NPR and author of “The Exvangelicals: Loving, Living, and Leaving the White Evangelical Church.”

Asian massage workers and sex workers have long been the targets of violence in America – but their stories often get pushed to the margins. This week, as AAPI Heritage Month begins, we’re pulling those stories to the center. Yin Q – one of the core organizers of Red Canary Song, a collective organizing with and for Asian and migrant sex workers – joins the show to share some of the stories of their community, break down the history of violence against Asian sex and massage workers, and sketch out what a future where sex work is decriminalized would look like.

Learn more about Red Canary Song at https://www.redcanarysong.net/, and follow them on Instagram @redcanarysong.

Women’s basketball has come a long way since Title IX in 1972. But not far enough. This week, Errin is joined by her friend Jemele Hill, the sports journalist, to talk all things women’s basketball. Jemele breaks down how far women’s basketball has come — as evidenced by this year’s women’s NCAA tournament — while also highlighting how far it has to go when it comes to media coverage and pay equity.

Stacey Abrams has a big imagination. She’s used it to expand Georgia’s electorate, be the first Black woman to be a major-party nominee for governor and write 16 books across multiple genres. This week on the show, Stacey sits down with Errin to share how she imagines American policy and democracy shifting —  from tax policy to electrical grids to galvanizing non-voters.
