Tens of millions of Americans cast their ballots in one of the most divisive elections in our lifetime, but what happens next? What are the teachings and takeaways from this historic presidential race, as well as critical local races and ballot initiatives? Laura Flanders & Friends presents an exclusive post-election roundtable discussion, featuring analysts and perspectives you won’t find in the money media. They include Guerline Jozef, a Haitian-American human rights advocate and Founder & Executive Director of The Haitian Bridge Alliance, called one of the “Most Influential People on Race, Politics, and Policy in the United States”; Judith LeBlanc, a citizen of the Caddo Nation and Executive Director of the Native Organizers Alliance; and Serena Sebring, Executive Director of Blueprint NC, a progressive ecosystem of nearly 60 groups working to build inclusive democracy in North Carolina. Join Laura and her guests as they examine what lies ahead for people, the planet and democracy. Where do we go from here? This conversation was recorded the morning of November 6, 2024.
“I am thinking about the people whose lives are at risk of deportation, the 11 million undocumented people who have been giving everything to the United States . . . But I am determined, undeterred, I have buckled up my seatbelt and I am ready to push forward.” – Guerline Jozef
“Organizing is our medicine. It’s our medicine in Indian country. It’s the medicine all across Turtle Island. The Democrats have to learn about what real organizing is. It’s about relationship building.” – Judith LeBlanc
“What we did not do was elect the mini Trumps that were slated at some points in this race to win both our governor’s office and our state superintendent’s office. Those are victories of the people.” – Serena Sebring
