First, she’s joined by Jeopardy Champion Amy Schneider, who discusses her experience becoming a public figure after a record breaking run on the show. Next, Imara talks with Peyton Daisy O’Conner about her experience becoming the first openly trans Asheville NC school board member, and the harassment that led her to resign.
