<p>In our first episode following the 2024 election, we reflect on what happened by turning again to this podcast's patron saint, Rebecca's Solnit. Carolyn shares Solnit’s message after the election, how it compares with her 2004 election analysis, and we get specific about the real wins abortion & reproductive rights made. We ground ourselves in the long timeline of history and emphasize that whatever part you choose to play in what's to come, you are needed. </p><br><p>Highlights:</p><p>00:48 Rebecca Solnit's Election-Night Message of Hope</p><p>04:11 The Spiral of Progress and Personal Reflections</p><p>05:17 Organizing and Activism in the Trump Era</p><p>06:48 The Birth of the Podcast</p><p>08:58 From Past to Present</p><p>14:51 My Reactions & Reasons for Hope</p><p>18:14 The Comstock Act and Legislative Efforts</p><br><p><strong>For links to this episode's sources and further reading, please visit </strong><a href="https://theextraordinarypodcast.substack.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>https://theextraordinarypodcast.substack.com/</strong></a>.</p><br><p><strong>Find Us Online</strong></p><p>- Website: <a href="https://shows.acast.com/extraordinary-the-fight-for-reproductive-justice" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://shows.acast.com/extraordinary-the-fight-for-reproductive-justice</a></p><p>- Substack: <a href="https://theextraordinarypodcast.substack.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://theextraordinarypodcast.substack.com/</a></p><p>- Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/the_extraordinary_podcast" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/the_extraordinary_podcast</a> </p><p>- Merch: <a href="https://theextraordinarypodcast.substack.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://theextraordinarypodcast.substack.com/</a></p><br><p><strong>Credits</strong></p><p>- Host & Producer: Carolyn Silveira.
