February 06, 2024 Introducing: The Amendment!
Welcome to The Amendment, a new podcast about gender, politics, and power premiering February 14th from The 19th News and Wonder Media Network, hosted by award-winning journalist and 19th editor-at-large Errin Haines.

This election year, our democracy hangs in the balance. We need news coverage that cuts past punditry and gives a voice to the new electorate – the marginalized folks that depend on a functioning democracy. Enter: The Amendment.

Each week, Errin sits down with people who have fresh perspectives on the state of our country – and asks questions that center the voices of women, queer folks, and people of color. The Amendment adds much needed asterisks to America’s most pressing political conversations – and gets clear on the unfinished work of our democracy.

Subscribe wherever you get your podcasts to listen to our first episode with Nikole Hannah-Jones of the 1619 Project on Tuesday February 14th, 2024.
