Special Coverage of the Democratic National Convention: How Alabama Representative Marilyn Lands Ran on Reproductive Rights & Flipped a Red District

Flux Podcasts (Formerly Theory of Change)

Alabama Representative Marilyn Lands, made headlines earlier this year when she defeated a Republican in a special election, and flipped a red district—a district that Trump had previously won by a large margin. And she did it by sharing her own abortion story. Lands joins me to discuss that election, her upcoming legislative goals, as well as, how leaning into a personal narrative, especially on reproductive rights, can help win elections.

This episode was made possible with a grant from the MacArthur Foundation through URL Media.
