Just Talks Podcast with Ali M. Collins

What happens when the fight for public education becomes the fight for our democracy? For the past several years, I've been tracking the rise of political attacks on our schools. In this new season, we're moving beyond the headlines to speak with the people actually winning the war for our future. The stakes have never been higher. I started this podcast documenting the attacks on our educators and the resulting political fallout. Now, I’m expanding the lens. In Season 2, I’m bringing you exclusive conversations with artists, experts, and influencers who are fighting the good fight across the country. The disinformation machine is working overtime, and we need to connect the dots. From the local school board to the national stage, I’ll break down exactly what's happening and give you the tools to get involved. If you want to understand the real threats to our schools and neighborhoods and learn how to build a more just future, stay tuned. The fight for our democracy starts now!
