On this episode of Tamarindo, we’re joined by Andrea Vidaurre, a Peruvian-American climate justice organizer and co-founder of the People’s Collective for Environmental Justice. Andrea was recently awarded the prestigious 2024 Goldman Environmental Prize for her groundbreaking work ensuring that frontline communities, especially those in Southern California’s Inland Empire—are heard in the fight against environmental racism and pollution caused by the warehousing and logistics industries.
We dive into Andrea’s journey as an organizer, the roots of her activism, and how community-led efforts are reshaping environmental policy not just in California, but across the country. She shares what it means to challenge systems of power from within, how to find joy in resistance, and why organizing with and for your community is the most powerful force for change.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
