Knowa's back with the latest installment of the 2026 "Meet the Candidates” series, and on this episode, Georgia State Representative Ruwa Romman joins him to break down why she’s running for Governor of Georgia — and what she thinks Democrats need to do differently to win in a “once-in-a-generation” cycle.

They get into her affordability agenda, how she navigated the 2024 cycle as a Palestinian elected official, and why she argues leaders should stop investing in war. She also weighs in on ICE overreach and what it will take for Democrats to show up for communities consistently — not just at election time. Ruwa made national headlines last year after the DNC blocked her from speaking when she questioned why anti-choice Republicans were given a platform at the convention instead of a progressive, lifelong Democrat.

With the evolving political dynamics in Texas, former Congressman Colin Allred has made a significant decision to run for the newly drawn 33rd Congressional District. In a recent interview, Allred discussed the impact of redistricting, pointing out how gerrymandering has disenfranchised many voters, particularly in communities of color. This shifting landscape has fueled several candidacies, including his own, as candidates adapt to these changes to ensure representation for diverse communities. Allred's journey from the NFL to Congress highlights his dedication to public service, believing deeply in the power of community and representation. 

While reflecting on past campaigns, Allred envisions a future where policy changes improve the lives of working-class Texans, offering them a fair chance to succeed.
