“I became enamored with this thing called politics” (w/ A'shanti Gholar of Emerge)
If you don’t see any people in power who look like you or come from your background, what do you do?
For A’shanti Gholar, President of Emerge America, the answer was to jump into the ring herself. From her high school showdown with a candidate for U.S. Senate to her work training women to run for office all over the nation, A’Shanti shares the story of how she took an early interest in politics and turned it into a career helping others.
