Shifting Terrain is back for a new season to explore the forces both capturing and dividing the working class. Hosted by sociologist Rachel Rybaczuk, she’ll talk with experts and everyday people about everything from the alarming reach of Christian nationalism to the inescapable influence of the manosphere, whether unions are actually the way to build power and if immigrants are really taking your job. Shifting Terrain moves beyond simplistic stereotypes to amplify the cultural, political, and economic issues facing America's working class today.

    In Shifting Terrain, we explore race and class in politics, beyond the simplistic stereotypes in the news, and between election cycles.


    Voters, political strategists, organizers, and politicians will speak to the ways race and class are playing out in voting patterns, campaigns, the news, and election outcomes. And, ultimately, how we navigate America’s multiracial, cross-class democracy.


    We highlight voices across the country to interrupt misconceptions fueling political polarization in American politics.

  • Coastal Elites & Country Bumpkins: Bridging the Rural-Urban Political Divide
    Oct 29 2024

    Damaging stereotypes about rural and urban voters abound in politics. What’s really going on in the charged landscape known as the rural-urban divide? Are rural voters actually voting against their interests when they elect a Republican? And are urban voters so immersed in the culture war they’re out of touch with the everyday concerns of working people? Is there any commonality across this geographical chasm?


    In today’s episode, Sarah Jaynes of the Rural Democracy Initiative, and Bonnie Dobson from Down Home North Carolina, share insights and anecdotes from long-term organizing with working class voters. Despite how it might feel out here, there is a way to bridge the rural urban divide for a more unified working class electorate.
