E25: Collective Action, from Whoville to Uhura

We're back in Boston with an urgent broadcast. Thinking broadly about Black wealth, power and land, we take a moment to explore how ordinary citizens can respond to the political changes and growing repression sweeping the country. With dramatic shifts occurring at both a federal and community level, Melony and Derek discuss the growing necessity for dispersed grassroots action and strategize on how small, localized movements can collectively drive broad-scale change.

Through engaging storytelling and insightful dialogue, they highlight the power of boycotts, economic leverage, and the importance of "wrong think", also known as exercising one's First Amendment rights to challenge the new political reality. This conversation is both a call to action and a beacon of hope. Communities, armed with knowledge, resilience, and creativity, can push back against the forces that seek to overwhelm them.

Listeners are encouraged to connect, organize, and mobilize. It is within our collective agency to create change grounded in the belief that through solidarity and strategic action, we can enhance communal wealth, safety, and power.
