#FemFriday with Akela Lacy | The Nomiki Show 11-12-21

Because of circumstances beyond our control, this week’s #FemFriday will be shorter than intended, but no less fantastic! Thank you everyone for your understanding. For this week’s #FemFriday Nomiki Konst is joined by Akela Lacy to discuss her latest article for The Intercept entitled “As States Prepare for Redistricting, Prison Gerrymandering Will Skew New Lines.” Akela Lacy is a politics reporter with The Intercept. She was previously The Intercept’s Inaugural Ady Barkan Reporting Fellow, and prior to that she was a politics fellow in the D.C. Bureau. She has also covered breaking news and immigration for Politico, produced Politico’s flagship newsletter, Playbook, and co-authored their afternoon newsletter, Playbook PM/ She has also worked in international reporting at the Pulitzer Center.
