Activists Stephanie Herron and Maria Beauchamp join RE Vanella in the bunker to talk about Puerto Rico, Southbridge, the plastic bag ban, and how we all have the responsibility to take both personal and collective action to change the world.
There are links in the show notes on the Patreon page to the books and other material we reference in the episode.
