These Senators complaining Biden nominees not qualified - who voted for TRUMP incredibly unqualified nominees. Trump himself the epitome of unqualified, epitome of double standard.

48:20

I read Vanishing Half; excellent

51:07
The Vanishing Half IS amazing - highly recommend

52:05
Self care! Yes! It’s a revolutionary act.

52:29
the undoing on HBO

52:39
Yeessss permission for more TV during the pandemic!

52:46
Q: With representation, which is improving in some spaces, what have you seen work to push it beyond representation and into action/impact?

52:46
the coats!

52:54
The Girl with the Louding Voice also awesome…

53:08
Abi Dare

54:17
Undeniable loyal

54:48
Ashanti will have your back for real!!

55:18
Reality romance! Do you read fictional romance too? Get a Life, Chloe Brown by Talia Hibbert is really fun!

55:24
having a tribe working in politics is important.

55:36
LOVE this so much.

55:38
OMG …is that a charm bracelet, A’Shanti?!

56:06
A'shanti - who are your sheros?

56:19
OMG, ALL of this! :)

58:21
Wow!!!

58:32
Amazing!

58:52
I just listened to Hillary interview Stacy about her romance/thrillers. I ordered them all!

59:22
Real question. How do you all combat the male ego in a political world? I’ve worked on a couple of campaigns and the men just think they know EVERYTHING. So much so to where eventually, the women just stopped offering advice and suggestions. How can we embolden ourselves, push our vision without it becoming a male/female thing?

59:26
Pen name: Selena montgomery

01:00:08
Yes - that she is also a romance novelist fills me with such joy

01:01:02
AMEN

01:01:52
yes Yes YES

01:02:09
Well said A'shanti!!

01:02:11
Tamia ~ you’ve had so many recent accomplishments over the two years - Booker Staff and Presidential - Presidential Inaugural Lead - during challenging times. What fuels YOU?

01:02:22
Thank you.

01:06:18
What Obama women staff started doing - when one woman said something, another woman would say, "I think we should consider what <A'shanti> said, why don't we xyz?" to reinforce that the first person said it, rather than have it ignored or taken over by a guy.

01:09:55
