Large-scale changes, like the Covid pandemic, make it clear that inequality exists, and is being reinforced as a result. We tend to look at governments to counter inequalities due to these changes, but what role do communities play? How do communities respond?

The main question we explore in this episode: What role do communities play in societal changes for the long-term benefit?
