Content Warning: This episode contains references to rape and sexual assault. It’s time for Afternoon Tea, and this week Sami Sage is joined by Amanda Nguyen, civil rights activist, Nobel Peace Prize nominee, and founder of Rise. They start with the story of how Amanda founded Rise and began actually writing her rights into law. They explain the concept of “Hopeanomics,” the process of how agendas are set, and why it’s critical to understand how the lawmaking rules work in order to play the game yourself. They also discuss a recent viral video featuring Amanda, and what’s coming up next for her (it includes Paris Hilton, believe it or not). Finally, they round things out with the four questions, leading to a conversation about how empathy is the solution to all the world’s problems. Learn more about your ad choices.
