BROAD: The Women’s Circus, MonsterFest and Jess Mauboy!!

This week’s episode of BROAD opens with the victory speech of Minnesota’s Ilhan Omar, the first Somali-American woman to be elected to a state house of representatives in the US. Ms Omar’s win is a small, bright spark in the midst of a wave of anti-Muslim and anti-immigrant hate speech and violence.
