This follows almost exactly a year from Dana's first appearance on Trending in Ed with Paul Gollash from ETS. 

Dana shares her inspiring origin story, from her upbringing with activist parents who had the first legal interracial marriage in Virginia, to her work in public policy, beginning at the Kennedy School and even working with Jerry Brown when he was the Mayor of Oakland. The through line for all of this is Dana's passion for creating change.
