Episode 250: Building Up Women to Run
L. Joy shares positive news, celebrating a legal victory by the Brooklyn NAACP, which successfully challenged New York's line-warming ban on constitutional grounds. She emphasizes the importance of staying engaged despite negative polls or disillusionment, highlighting her commitment to boosting voter turnout in New York, battleground state Pennsylvania, and beyond. L. Joy also calls out the hypocrisy of some politicians who claim to support Black families while failing to back policies that actually benefit them. She gives us our Do Now, then brings Patti Russo, Executive Director of The Campaign School at Yale to the front of the class to discuss how the organization prepares women to run for office.
