Erin Walter

Hello friends! Minister, activist, lead singer and bass player for Austin rock band Parker Woodland, Erin Walter returns to the show for episode 1544! Erin was recently featured in the Texas Monthly article, "All Eyes On Dilly" when she went to the Dilly, TX ICE detention facility with a group of interfaith ministers to protest last month. (Read the article HERE) Outside of being a rockstar, Erin is a minister with the Texas Unitarian Universal Justice Ministry and spends a lot of time fighting for justice for those that need it. I invited Erin on the show to talk about her work as an activist and her experience going up against ICE in Dilly. Erin has been front and center for a lot of the protests we've seen in the last year and she tells us how we can get involved at any level. Find out more about the Texas Unitarian Universal Justice Ministry at txuujm.org. We have a great conversation about fighting authoritarianism. Also, Parker Woodland will be playing on Friday, March 6th at 3Ten ACL Live with Molecular Steve and Stella and the Very Messed. Check out their new single, "Police On My Back" available wherever you stream.
