We are joined by Dr. Nura Sediqe of Princeton University and New American Fellows to discuss her new report on representation in the state legislatures. We discuss her findings and the alarming lack of representation from minority communities. She breaks down the concept of a “new american” and the what her findings mean for the state of american politics. We explore the implications and consequences of her studies and how it could shape the conversation and activism on the ground. Dr. Sediqe shares where her research is going next and her hopes for her work. We then dive into her other area of expertise, Kpop. We talk about the rise of the phenomenon and the way it intersects with internet culture, and digital activism.
