AirGo is joined on this episode by the incomparable Maira Khwaja. Maira is a writer and organizer of Public Strategy for the Invisible Institute, a journalism organization on the South Side of Chicago. She's a determined and joyful community organizer, building collective power with a variety of community projects and initiatives including food distribution across the city, the fight for housing protections in the wake of the Obama Center, and many more. Maira is also one of the most loving and caring humans in our circles, and it was a pleasure to celebrate and learn from her.

The convo went so deep that we had to break it up into two episodes for you to enjoy. Part 1 came out last week, we recommend checking it out before hopping into this episode!
