This week on Renegade Feminist, we’re going local. Alongside of all the high profile races happening right now, cities & towns across the state are electing their leadership and y’all, we’ve got to pay attention. Local government makes decisions that can directly impact our day-to-day lives, and to learn more, we dive into the saga of West St. Paul, which includes toxic masculinity, intimidation tampons, and the badass women who won’t stay quiet. We talk with City Councilwoman Lisa Eng-Sarne about what she’s been working on and the progress being made in West St. Paul. In the back half of the episode, we chat about why GOP candidates are skipping forums, what’s up with voting & COVID numbers, and bring you our two spotlight candidates of the week.
