Aftyn Behn is the Democratic nominee for State House District 51 in Tennessee. Before she can win that election and serve in the legislature, she joins the You Should Run Podcast to discuss a wide range of topics that motivate and inspire her, including:
- The advocacy of the "Tennessee Three" and efforts by concerned parents to protect kids from gun violence.
- Why progressives should fight for communities in conservative states, even if it is an uphill battle.
- Long term organizing to stop bad legislation in the short term and pass legislation for working families.
- Protecting LGBT rights.
- Pushing back against right-wing conspiracies.
- Keeping Tennessee from being a "Democracy Desert."
- Why YOU should run for office.
