March 06 Changing American (Her)story w/ Anya Dillard| The JAAM Ep. 51
HAPPY WOMEN’S HISTORY MONTH! We sat down with the Award-winning activist and storyteller Anya Dillard! Aya explains that her journey into activism started at a very young age, though not initially through politics. At five years old, she accompanied her mother to work at a hospital and met children living in a pediatric nursing facility with disabilities. That experience deeply impacted her and sparked a desire to help.

January 31 The Progressive Takeover ft. Kat Abughazaleh | The JAAM Ep. 47
We sat down with Kat Abughazaleh, a candidate running for Congress in Illinois’ 9th District, for an in depth and wide ranging conversation about her life, politics, and the moment we’re living in right now.

It’s a real discussion about power, resistance, and what it takes to run for office in a system that often punishes dissent. Whether you’re interested in progressive politics, grassroots organizing, or the future of democracy, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.

January 26 ICE Kills Another in Bleeding Minneapolis | JAAM Emergency
The unjust killing of Alex Pretti in Minneapolis has sparked national outrage. In this video, we break down why this was a clear cut murder, how people are still attempting to justify it, and why federal narratives don’t align with the facts. We also discuss Pam Bondi’s threats toward Governor Tim Walz, the escalation of political pressure, and what comes next for the country. If this feels like the beginning of a Civil War, we argue it’s because we’re already living in one. RIP to Alex Pretti, Renee Good, and to the people that have lost their lives protecting whatever we have left of this democracy.
