Summary
Alaska’s LGBTQ+ youth are tired of being sidelined—and this year, they’re finally turning out for a candidate who actually listens: Meda DeWitt. A healer, educator, and community organizer with roots in Alaska’s civil rights legacy, she’s running for governor with a bold, concrete platform: statewide nondiscrimination laws, a ban on conversion therapy, and a veto pen ready for anti-trans bills. Her campaign isn’t just hopeful—it’s a direct challenge to the status quo, urging voters to show up and demand representation. This is more than politics; it’s about ensuring every queer and trans kid in Alaska feels seen, protected, and powerful. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
