She Thinks Independent Women's Forum

Kristin Shapiro joins She Thinks podcast to discuss this month’s policy focus: Au Pairs for Senior Care. We delve into the very real need that the current senior population and future generations have in finding cost-effective, in-home care as they age. In our discussion, we look at the current Au Pair program, which is currently limited to child care, and explain how the State Department can expand it so that seniors can stay in their homes and receive support services all while reducing the high costs associated. 
Kristin Shapiro is a senior fellow with Independent Women’s Forum. She has clerked for Chief Judge Alex Kozinski on the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. Following her clerkship, Shapiro practiced law as an associate at Williams & Connolly LLP, a D.C. law firm, for six years, where she litigated numerous cases in the United States Supreme Court and the federal courts of appeal and district courts. She then served as Assistant General Counsel in the Office of General Counsel of the U.S. House of Representatives for three years; worked at the Office of Legal Counsel at the Department of Justice; and currently practices appellate and constitutional law in Washington, DC.

Eric Kaufmann joins She Thinks podcast this week to talk about the rise in mental health problems, the rise in wokeness, and if there’s a connection. He answers the question, "Do progressive ideas make people unhappy, or are unhappy people drawn to the cultural Left?” We review the data behind the mental health crisis, the research that looks into why it’s occurring, and how wokeness is either a cause or an effect. 
Eric Kaufmann is Professor of Politics at the University of Buckingham, where he directs the Centre for Heterodox Social Science. He has written many books and papers on national identity, the cultural Left, and political demography, and his latest book is entitled "The Third Awokening: A 12-Point Plan for Rolling Back Progressive Extremism."

Three Hong Kong freedom fighters who have made it their life’s work to stand up to the Chinese Communist Party and for basic human rights in Hong Kong join the She Thinks podcast this week. Due to their work, all three have been accused of “inciting secession” and “collusion with foreign forces” and currently have $1M bounties on their heads. We discuss the state of Hong Kong, their work, and recent legislation that has struck a blow to the partial autonomy Hong Kong had been promised by China. 
Frances Hui is the Policy and Advocacy Coordinator for the Committee for Freedom in Hong Kong Foundation, which works with communities oppressed by the CCP. Anna Kwok is the Executive Director of the Hong Kong Democracy Council (HKDC), a leading nonpartisan, nonprofit organization for Hong Kong’s pro-democracy movement and Hong Kongers in the United States. Joey Siu is a Hong Kong activist and Executive Council Member of World Liberty Congress. She played a vital role during Hong Kong’s pro-democracy protests of 2019 as a student leader, organizing on-campus and city-wide protests.
