This special commemorative episode celebrates the groundbreaking life and career of Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson - a true Texas trailblazer. Leroy, Chloe, Malajah, and Tyhler trace her path from the nursing profession to the state legislature to three decades in the U.S. Congress, while making history as the first African American elected from Dallas.
From fighting for education and health care to economic and infrastructure investments in underserved communities, Rep. Johnson spent a lifetime uplifting the voices of the vulnerable. She leaves an enduring legacy as a fearless advocate driven by conscience - never forgetting where she came from. Join us as we honor her many contributions and carry on her still-vital message of justice and empowerment.
