Fifteen Minutes of Feminism — This Is America: Making Sense of the 2024 Election (with Moira Donegan and Fatima Goss Graves)

On The Issues With Michele Goodwin

In this episode, we continue to assess and reckon with the 2024 election results. How did abortion rights prevail, while anti-abortion lawmakers were elected in the very same states? What will a Trump administration mean for women's rights, federal courts, agencies and throughout government? Are there any safeguards left as a check or restraint on abuse of office? And, what silver linings can we find among the election results?

Helping us to sort out these questions and set the record straight are our very special guests,
Moira Donegan: Moira Donegan is a feminist writer and opinion columnist with the Guardian U.S., as well as a writer in residence for the Clayman Institute for Gender Research at Stanford University.
Fatima Goss Graves: Fatima Goss Graves is president of the National Women’s Law Center Action Fund, and a co-founder of the TIME’S UP Legal Defense Fund.
