This week we bring you a second spin of our widely discussed interview earlier this year with Katie Wilson, who is now running for Seattle mayor. We talked with Katie before she was a candidate about a piece she wrote for the Stranger in January. At the time, Wilson was the head of the Transit Riders Union and a progressive advocate for affordable housing.  

In this interview, Wilson argued the left has failed to acknowledge some critical realities about homelessness, ceding the issue to "Seattle Is Dying" demagogues.   

Our editor is Quinn Waller.
