from AirGo · host Respair Production & Media
The guys get back up with Olga Bautista, a longtime collaborator and Environmental Justice leader whose work has reshaped the landscape of Chicago. The Co-Executive Director of the Southeast Environmental Task Force, Olga has been a leading force in the campaigns to defend the Southeast Side from environmental pollution, harmful development, and dangerous industry. She breaks down what EJ means in the era of Trump 2.0's attack on the movement, how its principles can serve as a guide as we fight for collective survival, and what's going on in her neck of the woods around the proposed "quantum campus" development on the old US Steel South Works site.SHOW NOTESSupport Southeast Environmental Task Force - https://www.instagram.com/se_taskforce/?hl=enFollow AirGo - instagram.com/airgoradioFind One Million Experiments on tour! - www.respairmedia.com/eventsBring us to your community by hitting us up - [email protected] CREDITS Hosts & Exec.
