The BGG Podcast - Paulette Jordan: "It is our right to be here"


We are celebrating Native American Heritage Month on The BGG podcast!


All month long during Native American Heritage month, host A’shanti Gholar is speaking with native women in politics. On this episode, A’shanti talks to Paulette Jordan, former state representative of Idaho and the 2018 Democratic nominee for Governor of Idaho. She talks about how an attack on tribal sovereignty motivated her to take action, and what it took to flip a seat.


The Brown Girl's Guide to Politics Podcast is all about amplifying the voices of women who are too often forgotten in media coverage. Host A’shanti Gholar leads conversations with women changing the face of politics. Episodes include interviews with politicians, candidates, and influencers. Get ready for roundtables, analyzing current events, and more! 


In the BGG to Politics blog, A’shanti created a space for women of color to learn about the current state of women in politics, to support others breaking into the political sphere, and to celebrate incredible people changing the course of the country. A’shanti founded the blog in 2018 and teamed up with Wonder Media Network in 2019 to extend her platform to audio.


The Brown Girls Guide is produced by Cinthia Pimentel. Original music was composed by Elisheba Ittoop.
