ENLIGHT: Rising Tide Effect
from Brooklyn Free Speech Radio Hosted by Caroline Mardok
In this first episode of Enlight, Caroline Mardok speaks with Kaitlin Krause, founder of Rising Tide Effect, and Keraya Knight, a participant who grew into a mentor through the program. Set in New York City, the episode explores what access to water really means in a city surrounded by it: not only swimming lessons, but safety, confidence, dignity, and belonging. Through their conversation, the episode looks at the barriers many young people face—from cost and lack of access to food insecurity and fear of the water—and at how Rising Tide Effect is creating pathways through free swim instruction, water safety education, and youth development. At once intimate and civic, this is a story about survival, joy, and what it would take to build a more swimmable city. https://www.carolinemardok.com/
