Is America facing its Handmaid’s Tale? - with Alex Morris
from Hey Soul Sista by Melissa Histon · host Mel Histon
A deep political and emotional divide is shaping the way women in America see their country, their safety, and their future — with left-leaning and right-leaning women often living in what feel like completely different realities. In this timely and eye-opening episode, host Mel Histon, sits down with journalist and cultural commentator Alex Morris, who has just returned from the United States — and what she witnessed there speaks volumes about the state of women, politics, and public sentiment in America today. From small Kentucky towns to national conversations, Alex shares the starkly different worlds that left-leaning and right-leaning Americans are living in — and why the divide feels deeper than ever. Mel and Alex explore why Trump’s messaging on crime and safety lands so powerfully with certain women, the cultural narratives that shape how women on both sides see the world, and the emotional toll political polarization is taking on female identity, community, and confidence.
