"Represent: The Woman’s Guide To Running For Office And Changing The World"

Book cover artwork for "Represent"

The new book, "Represent," is an interactive and inspiring step-by-step guide showing women how to run for the approximately 500,000 elected offices in the United States.

Co-written by former chief of staff at EMILY’s list Kate Black and actress, comedian, screenwriter, producer, podcaster, and activist June Diane Raphael, "Represent" is structured around a 21-point document called “I’m Running for Office: The Checklist.” Doubling as a workbook, "Represent" covers it all, from the nuts and bolts of where to run, fundraising, and filing deadlines, to issues like balancing family and campaigning, managing social media and how running for office can work in your real life.
