This week’s revolutionary is Kate Bahn, the Director of Labor Market Policy at the Washington Center for Equitable Growth. She grew up in a home with two parents and a brother, with parents who challenged traditional gender roles. Her father, who worked as a photographer, stayed home to raise Kate and her brother while her mom went out into the world every day to work.  In this episode, Kate and I discuss topics around feminist economics and why it’s such an important concept. On the more personal side, we discuss how being a feminist millennial affects mother-daughter relationship. We also talk about her childhood - including her norm-challenging parents – and about her experience pursuing a Ph.D.  Some Questions I Ask: <ul><li>What is the Washington Center for Equitable Growth?
