83 - Troy in Bloom feat Kiani Conley-Wilson

Once again, we are blessed with a guest: activist, organizer, and candidate for Troy City Council Kiani Conley-Wilson! We talk about Kiani’s platform and her vision for the city, from policing to sustainability to building stronger relationships between the city and people caring for vacant properties. We also talk about how our old friend Norlite Plant is wafting tiny knives into our lungs, how ICE is threatening to kill people with Coronavirus, and how some Aussies are saving depraved platypuses by letting wetlands be wet.
