In our first episode of Season 3, Janeen Bryant talks with two young Black and Brown community organizers with roots in North Carolina about their trajectory into the space of activism and what they see as the most pressing issues facing the state. Clarissa Brooks is a Charlotte native, independent movement journalist and cultural worker. Mayra Stefanía Arteaga is a Charlotte-based immigrant rights advocate, and co-founder at Comunidad Colectiva. Both draw on their experiences with the education, law enforcement and North Carolina-based movements to inform their approaches to community-based work. Listen as they identify particular challenges for the state and cast a vision for the future.
