Description

This week, we’re offering another political remix of some of our most enlightening political conversations to provide context ahead of the 2022 Midterms. We bring back Farai’s interview with Tara Setmayer CNN political commentator and contributor to ABC News on why she chose to break her loyalty with the Republican party. Then, Farai speaks to Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton about the fight for D.C. Statehood and Yamiche Alcindor, anchor and moderator of Washington Week on PBS and Washington Correspondent for NBC News on lessons from covering the Trump era. And on the weekly segment Sippin’ the Political Tea, Farai is joined by Errin Haines, founder and editor-at-large for The 19th and April Ryan, political analyst and The Grio’s White House correspondent to process the guilty verdict for former officer Derek Chauvin for the murder of George Floyd, police reform, and the early days of the Biden-Harris administration.

Created and hosted by award-winning journalist Farai Chideya, Our Body Politic is unapologetically centered on reporting on not just how women of color experience the major political events of today, but how they're impacting those very issues. Weekly episodes feature in-depth conversations about the economy, health, politics, education, the environment, and the most prescient issues—because all issues are women's issues. Tune in every Friday everywhere you listen to podcasts, and on public radio stations around the country.
