 THIS WEEK'S THEME: Debate This: Women will be the tidal wave of change that alters democracy as we know it 

WHY THIS THEME:

The 2020 election is already shaping up to be monumental in many ways. We’ve seen more candidates enter the race, and more impressively, diverse candidates running on various progressive platforms. June 26th kicks off the first round of Democratic debates. Part of our mission at Wonder Media Network is to use stories like the ones we’ve shared in this list with you today to inspire action, promote equality, and introduce empathy into politics, business, and culture. We have a long road to reaching parity, especially in politics. But when we push important conversations forward, we get closer and closer to enacting change at every level.

SOMETHING TO SHARE:

 Listen to the newest podcast from Wonder Media Network, Encyclopedia Womannica, a new 5-minute daily about some of the most revolutionary and unique women from throughout history.  Every month has a rotating theme. For example, this month we've been featuring Pioneers -- women who accomplished some kind of first. In July, we're highlighting Dreamers -- women whose dreams and creativity changed our realities.
