Laphonza Butler is filling Feinstein's seat - was this a surprise?

As we've been reporting, California is about to have a new US Senator, even as the state continues to mourn the late Dianne Feinstein, who died Friday at age 90. Governor Newsom made a surprise pick to finish Feinstein's term in the Senate, appointing longtime labor leader and campaign strategist Laphonza Butler to the seat. Laphonza Butler was a powerful union leader for years in California before joining the political consulting firm that has run campaigns for Governor Newsom, Kamala Harris and many of the state's most elite Democrats. Then she left to work at Airbnb before becoming the head of Emily's List, the organization based in Washington DC that recruits women for office and focuses on electing women who support abortion rights. She moved to Maryland two years ago to take that job, but still owns her home in Southern California and will re-establish residency in California so she can represent the state in the Senate. She could be sworn in as soon as tomorrow, when the Senate returns to session. She will be the only Black woman in the Senate, just the third in its history, the first openly gay Senator from California and the first openly LGBTQ Black person in the history of the Congress, both Senate and House.  For more, Doug Sovern, Patti Reising and Brett Burkhart spoke with Aimee Allison of Oakland, founder and president of She The People, an organization somewhat like Emily's List in that it works to elevate women of color to political power.

The jockeying for position continues in the race to succeed DianneFeinstein in the U.S. Senate, even though Feinstein still hasn't said if she will runfor another term. The bombshell endorsement last week of Adam Schiff by formerSpeaker Nancy Pelosi is still reverberating through the campaign. Orange County Congresswoman Katie Porter got off to a hot start bydeclaring her candidacy first and quickly flexing her fundraising muscles, butSchiff jumped in the race soon after and showed he too, can raise plenty ofmoney, and then threw everyone for a loop by scoring the very earlyendorsement of Speaker Emerita Pelosi. Probably the biggest endorsement youcan get in this race, except perhaps for that of Feinstein herself. So where doesthis leave Oakland Congresswoman Barbara Lee, who also plans to enter thisrace? For more, KCBS Radio's Doug Sovern, Patti Reising and Bret Burkhart spoke to Aimee Allison, founder and president of She The People, the national organization,launched in Oakland, to elevate women of color in politics.

For many students, entering college is a rite of passage that resembles hope and excitement. But for many others - especially students of underrepresented communities - this experience is often one riddled with anxiety and worries. Young people have to face big challenges: figuring out how to meet the financial obligations that come with their education, and learning to navigate new spaces often without help or representation. In this final episode of Season Two, we meet two guests that have defied all odds in their educational journey and in turn, have become action leaders in their communities - Aimee Allison and Cheyenne Chandler. Aimee is a writer, democratic organizer, founder and president of “She The People,” an organization dedicated to increasing voter engagement of women of color. After beginning her career in the military, she explains how she made a difficult decision that led her to support some of the biggest political campaigns of the last few years. Then, hear from Cheyenne Chandler, a recent graduate from the University of Kentucky who didn't crack under immense personal and financial pressures during her studies. Instead, she shares how she was able to use her experiences as a catalyst to fuel her passions, and how she leveraged her university's resources to help her achieve her goals.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Despite being roughly half the people on the planet, women rarely have equal representation in critical climate decision-making spaces. This isn't just bad for women. It's bad for everyone. In this episode, Dr. Katharine Wilkinson (our host and Dr. Ayana Elizabeth Johnson (host of Spotify's How To Save A Planet)  take a deep dive into the data behind this idea. They speak with two sociologists about how gender inequality in climate leadership can deepen the harmful impacts of climate change, and also hinder policy changes. They also speak with someone who has seen firsthand how women can transform an entire nation when they lead on climate.This episode features Dr. Christina Ergas, Anne Karpf, and Wanjira Mathai.Resources:We Do's Gender Climate TrackerEmily's List (an organization that helps Democratic women and non-binary people run for office)Higher Heights (invests in Black women's leadership)She The People (focused on helping women of color run for office)Matriarch (focused on helping progressive women run for office)She Should Run (helps women regardless of political affiliation)Global Witness (organization that assists environmental defenders)Follow our co-hosts and production team:Leah StokesKatharine WilkinsonStephen LaceyJaime KaiserDalvin AboagyeA Matter of Degrees is a production of Post Script Audio. For more episodes, visit our website.

From sports to politics, women are taught to conform themselves to the rules and dictates of a male-dominated world. Jennifer Palmieri, former White House communications director and the communications director for Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign, reflects on her career to call out a societal infrastructure that not only subordinates women to men but also pits women against women. In her new book, She Proclaims: Our Declaration of Independence from a Man's World, Palmieri challenges us to imagine a world in which a female-oriented workplace and life is no challenge. In fully rejecting our traditional systems, Palmieri argues, women can build a world that allows them to advance as equals. Join Palmieri at INFORUM for a discussion on politics, feminism and dismantling the patriarchal values that continue to stymie female success.

It's hard to drink from the drama firehouse at this point, but we're trying! Super organizer and Annie's List powerhouse Shellie Hayes-McMahon filled in for Ashley this week and dropped some serious truth bombs about local elections, why representation matters in our cities, and how those of us who aren't people of color can go about making ourselves into allies and accomplices.

This past Sunday we threw a book launch party for political photographer Casey Chapman-Ross, who said it was beyond everything she'd hoped for. We turned out a couple hundred people to The Butterfly Bar here in Austin, where we moderated a panel of fierce female activists, played a trivia game about where famous Texan rabble-rousers got their start, and heard from pint-sized lemonade stand activists.
