In this episode, Kelsie and Brooke learn from Dr. Rebecca Brenner Graham, a high school history teacher at the Madeira School and an Adjunct Professorial Lecturer at American University about Frances Perkins, the first female cabinet member in US history, and her efforts to aid refugees fleeing Nazi Germany before and during WWII. Rebecca's debut narrative nonfiction book on Frances Perkins's refugee policy will be published by Kensington in 2025. Rebecca holds a PhD in History from American University. Her writing has been published in The Washington Post, Slate, the Los Angeles Review of Books, and elsewhere. Tune in!

Correction: While there was a resolution to impeach Frances Perkins, she was not actually impeached.
