3 Righteous Mamas

Our delightful guest this week is Stephanie Wang-Breal, an award-winning filmmaker, commercial director and co-founder of the independent production company, Once in a Blue Films. Blowin' Up, her third feature-length film, had its World Premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival in April 2018 and was awarded the Best Documentary Feature award at the San Diego Asian Film Festival and the Society of Authors Award at the Film Des Femmes in Paris, France.

She currently resides in Brooklyn, New York with her son & daughter.

As one of the leading progressive voices in the U.S. today, Sally Kohn is a frequent guest on CNN, MSNBC and Fox News. Her first book The Opposite of Hate: A Field Guide to Repairing Our Humanity was published in April 2018. She often speaks as a keynote speaker at conferences about political division, hate, otherizing, diversity and identity and how we can solve the deep problems of our past and present.

This week we are joined by a special guest, Aimee Allison, the founder and president of She the People, a national network elevating the voice and power of women of color. She brings together voters, organizers, and elected leaders in a movement grounded in values of love, justice, belonging, and democracy.

We are joined this week by special guest Raj Patel, an award-winning author, filmmaker and professor at the LBJ Public Policy School at the University of Texas at Austin. He's written numerous best-sellers such as Stuffed and Starved: The Hidden Battle for the World Food System and The Value of Nothing: How to Reshape Market Society and Redefine Democracy. And his upcoming book is called Inflamed: Deep Medicine and the Anatomy of Injustice.

In this episode, Raj describes how food is part of the justice work we do and how we build a better world for our kids.

In this week's episode, the Three Righteous Mamas discuss the unprecedented winter storm in Texas this month and the mismanagement on behalf of the state administration.

This week we are joined by Alicia Garza, the co-founder of the Black Lives Matter Movement, to discuss how racial justice is key to building the future we need for ALL our kids.

No stranger to the state: Beto O'Rourke represented the 16th house congressional district based out of El Paso, Texas. He came into the limelight when running for the U.S. Senate, and more recently, ran for the presidency.

We ask O'Rourke about the mother role in his life, January's insurrection and his political future in the state.

As one of the most important voices in journalism for the past 30 years, Maria Hinojosa often tackles stories and pushes news institutions to cover more of a diverse and people-of-color lens. Her work has won Emmys and Peabody Awards and has a nationwide fanbase. 

We encourage everyone to buy her new book Once I Was You: A Memoir of Love and Hate in a Torn America, wherever you can buy books.
