My guest this week is Amanda Litman. Amanda is the co-founder and president of Run for Something, an organization which recruits and supports young, diverse progressive leaders running for down-ballot office. Since launching in 2017, Run for Something has elected more than 1500 leaders across nearly all 50 states, mostly women and people of color. Amanda is also a writer who runs a popular Substack and whose most recent book When We’re In Charge: The Next Generation’s Guide to Leadership came out earlier this year.
