Program Title: WINGS #03-16 Blue Texas
Description: Ever since George W. Bush defeated Governor Ann Richards, Republicans have dominated Texas, and according to Mary Beth Rogers, ordinary business-oriented conservatives have morphed into blustering buffoons. Rogers was keynote speaker at the Texas Democratic Women's convention in February 2016. Producer Frieda Werden excerpts her speech and interviews women Democrats from the black and latino and feminist spheres of action.

Host(s): Frieda Werden
Featured Speakers/Guests: Mary Beth Rogers, former Ann Richards campaign manager and author of Turning Texas Blue; Emma Preciado, member of Texas Democratic Women from Tarrant County; Linda Jann Lewis, voting rights advocate from South Waco; Genevieve Van Cleeve, Political Director of Annie's List, which supports pro-choice women Democrats in seeking political office.
