Today we are joined by a rising star in among Democrats—Qasim Rashid. We spend the first half of the program discussing Qasim’s background, his thoughts on money in politics, and his social media activism.
For the second half of the show, we discuss Qasim’s political positions relative to his competition. We get his thoughts on the teaching of American History, Reparations, Affirmative Action, and the Democrat party as a whole.
Our Way Black History Fact covers things that were illegal for Black people to do in the 18th and 19th century—including owning dogs.

About Civic Cipher
Civic Cipher is a weekly radio show hosted by Ramses Ja and Q. Ward. This show is dedicated to empowering Black and Brown voices, allowing them to engage directly with their communities as well as the general population. Self-determination is critical to securing a future free of oppressive systems, and Civic Cipher exists to facilitate discussions toward this end. Furthermore, Civic Cipher seeks to inform non-POC allies who may not be privy to these types of discussions and optics. Finally, Civic Cipher seeks to provide long-form conversations in spaces where there is often a lack of significant resources, potent dialogue, or the necessary engagement for facilitating a healthy and productive civil discourse.
