Summary

Activist, educator and writer Brittany Packnett Cunningham, sports journalist Cari Champion, and The 19th founder Errin Haines join hosts Angela Rye and Tiffany Cross during a special live broadcast on day two of the 2024 Democratic National Convention last August. Together, this powerful group of women, all close friends, have dubbed themselves The Machetes.

They talk about the power of Kamala Harris’ appointment and the diversity and unity they’re witnessing in the Democratic party. Now that we’re here, what next? How do we ignite our imaginations and dream bigger?

You'll also hear briefly from the founder of Black Voters Matter, Latosha Brown.

Listen to the full broadcasts from the DNC and all of the Native Land Pod episodes on the podcast feed (wherever you get your podcasts) or watch them on the Native Land Pod YouTube page.
