Let's Talk about ADHD with Kami Ufford

On the eve of the 2026 midterms, I’m looking at the races and headlines that are on my mind... from Los Angeles and California to Texas, Ohio, Michigan, Georgia, Florida, North Carolina, and beyond. We talk local leadership, homelessness, public safety, affordability, campaign spending, organizing, and the pull between local issues and national stages. These are my election-eve observations and predictions, recorded before Election Day.Chapters(00:00) Election Eve: Los Angeles and California(06:48) Texas: the race and campaign spending(10:13) Ohio and Michigan: ads and party politics(19:23) Georgia, organizing, and the New South(23:04) Florida and North Carolina(26:04) Iowa, Alaska, Kansas, and the wider outlook(30:16) Closing thoughts and what comes next

It’s Inauguration Day 2025, and Donald Trump is back in the Oval Office. From 42 executive orders—including pardons, policy reversals, and global declarations—to claims about reshaping America’s role on the world stage, we break down the first day of this new presidency. Join us as we explore what these moves mean for the U.S. and beyond.

Join us as we dive deep into education during the pandemic, ways to move forward, and tips for current and incoming teachers!

This episode we will be discussing ADHD and how it effects our lives. This is the first of the new style of episode for Aspiring Abolitionist. I plan to delve deeper into the people that stand behind and create the policies I analyzed in earlier episodes. Make sure to subscribe and follow the podcast on Anchor, Apple Music, and Spotify. 

Listen in as I detail how censorship in music limits freedom of expression and free speech. I will work through a variety of examples mostly pulling from current examples like YNW Melly and Tay K. The end of the episode features an interview from the Today Show where Ice Cube details his time in NWA and his thoughts on censorship. Happy listening :) 

I'm back and better! This is the first episode of Season 2 and we have to start with a bang. Listen as I go through a brief history of cannabis in America and speak with Adesuwa Joseph -- an entrepreneur in Charlotte who's business centers around cannabis. Happy Listening :) 

Listen in as I discuss my favorite piece of legislation -- can you guess what it is? 

Listen in as I talk about the statute that ties organized crime, street gangs and drug cartels together. Infamously tagged as the RICO, this statute introduces a way to tie racketeering activity to who engages in the activity and who orders it! This was a great topic to explore and way for me to decide what I believe safety truly is -- I encourage you all to evaluate the idea of community safety and what that would look like for ALL the members of your community. 

Listen in as I delve into what the heck is going on in Portland. Too often, we displace racism as a uniquely Southern issue while racism is all around us -- Portland is a glaring example of that. Happy Listening! 

Listen in as I highlight the rollback of the 2012 Equal Access Rule of the Office of Housing and Urban Development. Ben Carson leads HUD -- with his expertise residing from a childhood in low income housing. Secretary Carson made headlines when he announced plans to rollback the 2016 guidance administered during the Obama Administration.  Also, I got the opportunity to speak with the boys from Dominate the Decade - another great podcast out on all streaming platforms!
