WDC Hosts Jess Piper, “Dirt Road Democrat”

The Women’s Democratic Coalition for North Platte (WDC) hosts an evening with podcaster Jess Piper. Jess is a voice for those who feel like they stand alone in a sea of disparate and extreme policies. After an Arkansas upbringing in a check-to-check household with the church at the center, Jess worked her way through college and became an English teacher. Now, Jess, a mother and grandmother, makes her home on a small farm in rural northern Missouri. A few years ago, Jess jumped into politics feet first with a run for office in a district where her candidacy was the first by a Democrat in a generation. Now a podcaster with deep roots in the dirt roads of America, she serves as a megaphone for rural American women with Democratic leanings.
