Grab your weighted blanket and an extra hot coffee cause we are no longer supporting iced beverages, and this episode is a rough one to get through without some extra comfort. Because today we are talking about ICE and the ways this is impacting our communities, as well as helping to share some resources for people to try and counter some of the brutality.


We’re going to do our best with this one, but there is a lot to cover and a lot that is constantly changing.

There are so many people doing important work to help communities overcome this invasion on our rights, and hopefully this episode can cover some ground on pointing you in the right directions to show you where to look to stay informed.


A lot of this is very daunting, but the ways we share information with each other goes along way
