    Bonus from The Amendment: Keeping Democracy Intact with Nikole Hannah-Jones

    We’re bringing you an episode of a new podcast we think you’ll 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.

    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.

    In 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.

    Nikole 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.

    This week, I'm talking with Dr. Lucy Kalanithi, a physician, a mother, a storyteller, and host of the podcast Gravity. Lucy's late husband, Dr. Paul Kalanithi, wrote When Breath Becomes Air, a book I've read, and loved, and gifted to so many important people in my life. Lucy and I explore raising kids who have lost a parent, living through grief, and using meaning as a something of a lifeboat.

Great Podcast for CP3 Fans and Parents Everywhere

This podcast is great, topics include parenting, being a pro athlete, being in media, and so much more. The last episode with Michael Strahan was so good, lots of fun stories. Candace is very good at interviewing, she asks great questions, and lets the guests shine! I also appreciate the capital one interviews about financial wellbeing. This is a topic close to my heart and I’m happy to see this info being talked about in an approachable medium amongst women. I would love to see next season incorporate more specific topics in personal finance to go just a little deeper. Maybe have a crossover with Tiffany Aliche aka The Budgetnista!!?? Looking forward to season 2!

Outstanding

I really enjoyed the relaxed conversation between Candace and her guests. I have known Candace since her freshman year in college and I love seeing her grow and expand her talents. I can honestly say listening to her podcast is no different than one of our private conversations. It is great to see women helping women because we both learned from the best- Pat Summitt would love this Candace project! I am looking forward to more great podcasts!
