City Conversation with Elana Pirtle-Guiney
Description
On this episode, host Rockne Roll chats with Portland City Council President Elana Pirtle-Guiney, the lone Jewish member of Portland's recently-enlarged city council. They discuss how the changes brought on by the city's revised charter have gone, how her career in policy informs her outlook on her Judaism and whether all politics are still local.
Roll also talks with Randy Kessler, the Northwest Regional Director of StandWithUs, about the NEA Representative Assembly's vote to cut ties with the Anti-Defamation League, how anti-Israel advocacy has become a part of conversations around education at the highest levels and how parents can get involved.
