Hello everyone, it's Andrea Chalupa, your Gaslit Nation co-host.

First, before I tell you who I'm interviewing, I want to just remind everyone, if you're

getting this message before 4 p.m. Eastern on election eve, November 7th, there's still time

to join our phone bank for Mandela Barnes and Wisconsin,

a must win U.S. Senate race, and Lauren Underwood. We must keep her in the U.S. House out of Illinois.

And you can sign up for this phone bank. We're doing it with Indivisible. The link is pinned

to the top of our Twitter page at Gaslit Nation on Twitter, RSvP there. I'm going to be on the call.

Mandela Barnes himself is going to be on the call. And if we keep the Senate and Democratic control,

guess what? And even if we lose the house, guess what? We could still ensure that we get sane judges. We could still make sure that judges who believe in the strong rule of law are elected to the courts of the land. Trump packed the courts with McConnell when Republicans controlled the Senate, even when the Democrats had the House, and now 30%

of U.S. courts are packed with Trumpian ideologues, including the Supreme Court. So even if

Democrats hold the Senate, we could still get our judges through for two more years. That's a really

important thing in the fight against

encroaching autocracy in this land. So fight like hell for Mandela Barnes. Come join our phone bank.

At this phone bank, we're going to be selecting one volunteer to receive a signed copy of Sarah's

book they knew and a Mr. Jones poster. So you don't want to miss that. Again, the RSP link is

pinned to the top of our Twitter page at Gaslit Nation. So thank you so much for joining that.

And now meet our guest, very special guest, Dakota Hall is the executive director of the Alliance

for Youth Action, the first black and indigenous leader of the organization,

and a former executive of the Alliance's Wisconsin-based affiliate leaders igniting transformation.

The Alliance for Youth Action grows progressive people power across America by empowering local

young people's organizations to strengthen our democracy, fix our

economy, and correct injustices through on the ground organizing.
