Join us this week as we hear from Josh Dineros, a fourth-year Andrew Goodman Ambassador at the University of San Francisco. Josh and I have a powerful conversation about the impact of seeing yourself represented in our democracy through more diverse political candidates running for office, how the hateful legislation targeting the LGBTQ+ community impacts us, and how crucial intergenerational organizing and community building can be.
A quick note: We do discuss some heavy topics in this episode. In particular, we discuss the recent shooting in Monterey Bay, California and the impact it had on the AAPI community. We also discuss recent surge in anti-LGBTQ+ legislation that is targeting young people and their ability to safely express themselves. If you are not in the place where you would like to hear these things discussed, please take care of yourself and come back to this episode at a different time.
