America is more than Democrats vs. Republicans | It's Been A Minute

Politically "independent" used to mean you were moderate. Not anymore.  It's no secret that Americans are politically divided, as faith in political parties erodes. In the past, so-called "independent" voters were likely shifting between Democrats and Republicans. But now, especially Gen-Z, are pushing in new directions, far from the center. In this episode, we explore how "independent" became a rallying cry for change on the left and the right.  Danielle Kurtzleben (https://www.npr.org/people/409798174/...) guest hosts with Elena Moore (https://www.npr.org/people/732818534/...) , a political reporter for NPR, and Dr. Omar Ali (https://www.uncg.edu/employees/omar-ali/) , a professor of African American political history at UNC & author of In the Balance of Power: Independent Black Politics and Third Party Movements in the United States (https://www.ohioswallow.com/978082142...) .
