The national response to COVID-19 was nothing short of negligent. As over 1 million people died preventable deaths, we were once again made clear how capitalism prioritizes profit over people. The City of Oakland’s government leaders were part of the problem. On episode 11 we take a look at the cruise ship that brought Oakland its first cases and how it was organizers, not local and state officials- who stepped up to provide resources and free testing to the community.

Guests:

Yemi Belachew: People’s Programs Co-Director of Operations.

Dr. Nana Afoh-Manin: Doctor and founder of MyCovidMD and SharedHarvest
