“Here and Now: Grassroots Organizing in this RACIST Trump Era” w/ Valerie Kelley-Bonner & Trische’ Duckworth
In this powerful and timely episode, we sit down with grassroots organizers Valerie Kelley-Bonner and Trische’ Duckworth to unpack the challenges and triumphs of community activism in what they boldly call the "racist Trump era." With raw honesty and deep experience, both guests share their journeys into activism, the challenges of organizing in hostile political climates, and the strength found in building community from the ground up. Trische’ Duckworth, founder of Survivors Speak, brings a passionate perspective on survivor-led advocacy, police accountability, and what true justice looks like for marginalized communities. Valerie Kelley-Bonner, a seasoned activist and community educator, sheds light on the emotional labor of organizing, the importance of historical context, and the spiritual grounding required to sustain long-term resistance.
