Ahch-To Radio #47: Jamaal Bowman - The Progressive Jedi Way, The Force of Politics, & The Hope In Our Stories

In today's very special episode of the show, Alden sat down for an incredible, rich conversation with Democratic Congressional Nominee, Jamaal Bowman! Jamaal is the uncontested nominee for New York's 16th District. He's a progressive, an educator, and one of the prominent voices of change in America in these very crucial times. He is also, it turns out, an actual Jedi Knight. Find out how his Tweet about Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order prompted this conversation,  and how he feels about the game overall! Plus, his views on the philosophy of the Force, how fiction informs our political experiences, teaching social activism to our kids, the concept of hope vs. apathy, & so much more! Jamaal goes deep on the lore, with thoughts on fear, Yoda, The Jedi Order, hip-hop, and American stories. He's a special guy and you should absolutely find out more about him at his website, here!
