She Votes!

100 years ago, the 19th Amendment was ratified. But American women’s battle for the ballot began long before that day in August—and continues, even to this day. Wonder Media Network presents She Votes!—a podcast that digs into the complex history of the women’s suffrage movement and its enduring significance, hosted by award-winning journalists Ellen Goodman and Lynn Sherr. Having lived through—and covered—feminism’s second-wave, Goodman and Sherr tell the definitive story of suffrage, from the first demands to speak on public matters by antislavery activists in 1837, through the 1848 Seneca Falls Convention for women's rights, to the drama of the final passage in 1920 and beyond.

The Reckoning

The Reckoning examines the many ways in which America continues to be affected by its tortured history regarding race, and how that history has affected many of today’s most troubling social issues—mass incarceration, police brutality, income inequality, and now the COVID-19 crisis, which is disproportionately affecting our African American citizens. But this podcast isn’t just about defining the problem, it is about finding real and tangible ways of facing this past which may serve to heal this country’s brokenness, and make some of its most wounded citizens whole. To make this story less abstract and more personal, we will look at how slavery and Jim Crow affected an African American family that was enslaved by one of Kentucky’s most prominent white families.
