🎙️ Birth of a Nation: How the U.S. Was Won

A Road Trippin' for Change Episode | Explore the Series | Watch | Upgrade & SupportHi y’all! 👋🏽 We continue on our Road Trippin' for Change to reflect on the ties between the United States' founding and Trump's America. In Arizona, we discuss indigenous voting and the long history of white supremacist violence in elections. I share more about my experience canvassing for the 2024 election in Arizona. We end with some joy on a dirt road and another Radical Reads recommendation. Watch today's episode on PeerTube.*Content Note: In the episode, I refer to the Bosnian genocide, however, I meant the Armenian genocide, which took place during World War I. I also speak to colonizers as "deeply impoverished" I was referring to European settlers who came on the heels of the colonizers who were financed by monarchs or wealthy elites.Become a member for the full experience: www.rootschangemedia.com/private-podcast/#/portal/account/plansIn the EpisodeFrom the U.S. Founding to the 2024 electionArizona's history of settler colonialismMapping the Southwest & it's historyWorld War II Aftermath and IsraelIndigenous history & White Settler Colonialism2024 Election ViolenceBook Recommendation: HItchhiker's Guide to the GalaxyDriving on a Dirt RoadReferences / Resources🎬 Marfa, TX: Giant, Masculinity, & Queerness✊🏽 The Bloated Billionaire Bill📚 By the Fire We Carry by Rebecca Nagle🎙️ [Preview] Trump's America: Poverty & Ancestral Trauma in the U.S.🌱 Building Resilience Against Fascism🌱 Democrat's Won't Save Us, We Will📚 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas AdamsGrow with Healthy Media:Explore healthy media & techBecome a Seedling MemberFollow us on Mastodon, PeerTube, & BlueSkySupport independent media & assist an activist ★ Support this podcast ★ If you enjoyed today's Road Trippin' for Change episode, consider joining our memberships for the full experience!
