We\u2019re bringing you an episode of a new podcast we think you\u2019ll love: The Amendment. A new podcast about gender, politics, and power from The 19th News and Wonder Media Network, The Amendment is hosted by award-winning journalist and 19th editor-at-large Errin Haines.\n\nEach week, Errin sits down with people who have fresh perspectives on the state of our country \u2013 and asks questions that center the voices of women, queer folks, and people of color. The Amendment adds much needed asterisks to America\u2019s most pressing political conversations \u2013 and gets clear on the unfinished work of our democracy.\n\nIn this episode, we hear from Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Nikole Hannah-Jones on what role the free press should play in ensuring the survival of our democracy. \n\nNikole Hannah-Jones is the creator of the 1619 Project, Knight Chair in Race and Journalism at Howard University, and a leading voice on the vital role of journalism in our democracy today. In the inaugural episode of The Amendment, Errin and Nikole discuss the current state of journalism, the high stakes of this presidential election, the importance of historical context in our political moment, the challenges faced by Black women in journalism and more.
