Episode 3: Pam Keith
“There are a lot of messages that came across election night... The pushback against Republican leadership, that’s the thread that seems to be common to all of the victories from coast to coast, from north to south, be it federal, be it state, be it mayor’s races, school board races, referendums, you name it, the voters came out and voted against the Republicans.”
Episode 2: Eric King
“You don’t have to be everything to everyone, but you can give yourself and you should give what you can to your community because you would want that back to you. That’s mutual aid. I share with you what I have. You share with me what you have, whether it’s skills, resources, talents… As opposed to exploiting and commodifying each other.”
Episode 1: Daryle Lamont Jenkins
“You have strength. It doesn’t come from your government. It doesn’t come from your media. It comes from you. And sometimes it’s just a case of when you see things that need to be done, you might need to. Be that person that does it.”
