In this episode, I talk with Madeline Mielke, a nationally recognized rights leader and president and CEO of the Asian Pacific American Institute for Congressional Studies (APAC). With nearly 25 years of experience in political campaigns, fundraising, and political training, Madeline discusses her journey, the importance of increasing Asian American representation in politics, and the challenges and successes she has encountered along the way.
We explore topics such as the role of diverse consultants, the significance of empowerment and training, and the impact of cultural and generational shifts in political participation. This conversation sheds light on the pathways to more inclusive and representative political landscapes for Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders.
