This election year, our democracy hangs in the balance. We need news coverage that cuts past punditry and gives a voice to the new electorate – the marginalized folks that depend on a functioning democracy. Enter: The Amendment, a new podcast about gender, politics and power from The 19th News and Wonder Media Network, hosted by award-winning journalist and 19th editor-at-large Errin Haines.
Each week, Errin sits down with people who have fresh perspectives on the state of our country – and asks questions that center the voices of women, queer folks, and people of color. The Amendment adds much needed asterisks to America’s most pressing political conversations – and gets clear on the unfinished work of our democracy.

Dolores Huerta is a legendary labor rights activist who co-founded the United Farm Workers union with Cesar Chavez. At 94 years old, she’s still raising her voice for the voiceless and teaching communities how to wield their power. This week, she joins the show to share what she’s learned about fighting for marginalized communities, the importance of the ballot box and how we can claim the future we want.
