Marisa and Jessica discuss what it's like being workers' rights attorneys in the Trump era—particularly advocating for immigrant, women, and LGBTQI+ workers. They share what they're seeing behind the scenes in the nitty-gritty erosion of workplace rights. They also reveal what's happening within advocacy communities that's giving them hope right now, and their vision for a future where all workers are equally safe, valued, and thriving.

In this special episode of For All of Us, we interview women who work in construction and other skilled trades. Why are trades jobs important? These desirable careers are high paying and union protected, without the college debt. Nine tradeswomen share how they're impacted by the Trump administration's actions undoing decades of progress that made skilled trades more equitable for women. They tell us about how they got their jobs, their experiences on job sites, and the community they've built together.

Hanna & Jessie discuss how the Trump Administration's nonprofit funding cuts are concretely impacting kids and families in their home state of Alaska. From after-school programs, to mental health support, anti-racism initiatives, and sexual harassment trainings, they share how federal government attacks on DEI are directly harming their communities.

Farrah & Valerie share what it's like to be caregivers for aging parents. This extremely common but often invisible labor of caring for ill and aging loved ones often falls on women. No set schedule, intense physical requirements, and difficult emotional labor... and no pay. Juggling all that with fulltime work, parenting, and other responsibilities leaves caregivers burned out, with nowhere to turn for support. In episode 2 of our new podcast, "For All of Us," Farrah & Valerie explore how government and society could better support family caregivers, who are experiencing federal cuts to resources that were already way too scarce.

They share how they're fighting fascism in their communities, including protecting their immigrant neighbors, and how this moment is connected to the larger history of the LGBTQI+ movement.
