TRAILER: A People’s Climate Podcast—Coming Soon!
byThe Nation Magazine

“A People’s Climate” is a new climate podcast by Counterstream Media and The Nation. Hosted by Shilpi Chhotray. 

This isn’t climate talk as usual. This is environmental justice. 

Over nine powerful episodes, we bring together activists, organizers, and movement leaders who are fighting on the frontlines. Every conversation reveals not only why the fight matters, but how communities are already putting solutions into practice and power back in the hands of the people. 

The future we need is being built from the ground up. Not by corporations. Not by billionaires. By us. The people demanding justice, reclaiming power, and rebuilding what’s been broken.

New episodes every Saturday starting Sept 27, 2025.

This isn’t climate talk as usual. This is environmental justice.

Across nine powerful episodes, A People’s Climate brings together activists, organizers, and movement leaders who are fighting on the front lines. Each conversation highlights not just why the fight matters but also how working-class communities are already putting climate solutions into practice and putting power back in the hands of ordinary people.

The future we need is being built from the ground up—not by corporations or billionaires but by people demanding justice, reclaiming power, and working to repair what has been broken.

How Abdul El-Sayed Can Win Michigan, Plus an Election Protection Test Case / Start Making Sense
byThe Nation Magazine

The Michigan Democratic senate primary provided a test of the power of AIPAC and big money. John Nichols has our analysis.

Also: a rehearsal for the election protection groups: the California sherriff who seized 650,000 ballots from November’s referendum, claiming he needed to recount them. Zach Roth of Democracy Docket will explain how the Chad Bianco case provides a test of one key Republican strategy for holding on to the House after the midterms.
