Episode Details

This is our second conversation with Alexander Montalvo, the CEO of the Catalyst Project and co-founder of Tarrant 4 Change. Alex is a community organizer who works with grassroots organizations to make change and give power back to the most marginalized people in our county. His work gives him a great perspective and how we can influence the political landscape. In our first conversation with Alex and Lydia nearly a year ago, Republican consultants were seen sitting with Nazi sympathizer Nick Fuentes. Today, we are facing issues such as voter suppression on college campuses, attacks on DEI, and infighting between Christian nationalist Republicans and Corporate Republicans. Have we taken steps forward to fight against Tarrant's obsession with extremism or is there a storm coming this November? You decide after this sitdown between Alex, Ann, and EJ. Please consider donating to Tarrant 4 Change. They do amazing work!
