In this episode, Behind the Bar is honored to spend time with the Kansas Democratic Party’s first Afro-Latina chairperson, Jeanna Repass!

It’s no secret that the current state of our nation’s political landscape has Dems and Reps pitted against each other like never before. Jeanna brings BTB a fresh take on how the two are more alike than we think and how her upbringing with a Vietnam veteran father and civil rights activist/Lutheran pastor mother informed that perspective. Jeanna is an excellent example of the kind of leadership we’d all be glad to see more of in Kansas!

Jeanna is currently up for Vice Chair at Large of the Democratic National Committee. You can learn more about her and the Kansas Democratic Party at ⁠KansasDems.org⁠!
