Act Out! [149] - Your Pipeline Fights; Polluting Along Race Lines & Invading White Spaces
Wed, 2/21/2018

Not in the bayous? Well, you don't need to be. This affects us all. Finally, the impact of dirty energy on black and brown communities plus community organizer Maurice Cook joins us to talk white supremacy, the importance of battling racism, of recognizing black history and how to organize TOGETHER in our place and time.
