Published: Jan. 30, 2020, 7:14 p.m.

Rubia Garcia is a veteran New Orleans educator & historian, an entrepreneur, an activist, motivational speaker and an author. Hear how this youngest of 10, and Daughter of a 20 year Vet, and Criminal Defense Attorney became inspired to stand for the marginalized, and disenfranchised, by being a voice for the voiceless! What single life encounter forever shaped what the rest of hers would be like? Rubia would go on to teach in the classrooms of New Orleans, impacting thousands of young lives, and then impacting hundreds of thousands, to millions more via social media and YouTube. But why sacrifice her normal life for a public one? Why did she take a hiatus from social media for a couple of years? Why can she not sit back silently, while watching injustice after injustice go by? What are Rubia’s political aspirations? And what will it take to effect change? What are Rubia’s desires, and what does she want to be known for? bigshrimpradioent@gmail.com Big Shrimp: instagram.com/big_shrimp_radio Rubia: instagram.com/nolarubiagarcia --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/big-shrimp-radio/support
