About this episode
Do moms really need to be on the front lines of protecting free speech? Are moms responsible for organizing protests and being patriots? No, we aren't talking about backtalk today.
It's all about our civil liberties and one wonder mom's fight against Texas legislation that threatens them. We will discuss our roles and responsibilities in protecting our freedoms so that our kids and country benefit.
