Summary

In this episode, L. Joy emphasizes the importance of understanding who holds power at all levels of government, particularly as key caucuses, coalitions, and federal appointments shape policies. For the Do Now, she reminds us that despair is not a strategy and calls for focused, strategic advocacy tailored to critical issues like housing, equity, and justice. The episode transitions to a conversation with Jessica Mackler, president of Emily’s List, at the front of the class, highlighting recent wins for pro-choice women in politics, including the historic milestone of two Black women serving in the U.S. Senate simultaneously.
