Special Trillbillies correspondent Shaylan Clark (@316shaylan), a journalist and student at Berea College, talked to miners, family members, and supporters at the Harlan County Coal Blockade in her hometown of Cumberland, Kentucky. We're presenting these voices to you, as a glimpse into what direct action looks like in the mountains.

P.S. We will be taking the week off from our regularly scheduled episode this week, as we are all either very busy or still recovering from touring. We will have a Patreon episode this weekend, and be back on our regular schedule next week. Thank you for your patience!!!
