How will Gen Z independents shape the midterms?

About this episode

Has Gen Z changed how we think about independents? 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.  Support public media with NPR+ and enjoy perks for over 25 podcasts like this one.
