In the House series premiere

In our first episode of The Rabble: In the House, we talk with Shellie Hayes-McMahon about how we can make changes in our own houses AND in the Texas House to uphold Black civil rights and dismantle white supremacy. Plus, we get to know candidate Natali Hurtado for TX House 126 and become fangirls for life thanks in part to our mutual love of The Golden Girls. Catch the video of this episode here: https://www.facebook.com/TheRabbleTX/videos/264256891581677/
