  • The Atlantic’s video series “Women and Leadership” explores insights and advice from five women in politics, entertainment, and tech. In the history of the United States, there have been 1,917 male senators and only 46 female senators. This episode profiles Amy Klobuchar, the Democratic senator from Minnesota. For Klobuchar, who grew up middle class with no familial ties to politics, being one of 20 female senators is an opportunity to bring a necessary perspective. “Having women at the table is incredibly important...they're able to get things done in a unique way,” she says in this interview. “Based on your experiences, you can relate more and immediately see the unfairness of a problem that others are experiencing.” The film was directed by Lucy Wells.

    "Giving birth, man can't have that experience" that could literally be used against her in a negative ad during the Democrat primary. Sad

      As someone who has worked in an environment like this before, if you vote for her and think this is ok, you are enabling abuse. Her senate coligue from the same state Al Franken was ousted from the senate for using his status to abuse people as well, but for some reason, she gets a pass. Despicable.

      @@sw9618 You can say the same thing about Al Franken, it's still harboring an environment of workplace abuse. Just because people like her voting record, doesn't mean anything.

      DaBod and you can say the same about trump and everyone else. We agree to disagree which is just fine. I frankly wished Al Franken would’ve stayed.
