Ep. 95 National political commentator Karine Jean-Pierre on how to get into politics...and make a real impact

Karine Jean-Pierre is an accidental political organizer. Growing up wanting to be a doctor, she fell into political advocacy unexpectedly and unintentionally. She worked on Barack Obama's 2008 campaign, served in his White House and today serves as the Chief Public Affairs Officer for MoveOn.org, as a political commentator with CNN and MSNBC, and teaches at Columbia University. The author of the brand new memoir and call-to-action Moving Forward, she joins Catherine to tell the story of growing up a Haitian-American immigrant and falling into the career she loves. She shares how anyone and everyone can and should play a role in politics - now more than ever.
