Pantsuit Nation Podcast show

Summary: Hurricane Harvey first made destructive landfall in Texas on August 25th, and since then Hurricanes Irma and Maria have devastated parts of Florida, South Carolina, and the Caribbean. On this episode we talk to Faitth Brooks, a member of Pantsuit Nation, about the aftermath of the storm, the worry that her hometown of Houston is being forgotten, and how she is using social media to organize relief efforts. We also get a chance to talk to Valorie Aquino and Jessika Davidson from March for Science about what you can do to support climate science and policies in your local government. Plus we give the Golden Pantsuit to a woman who won and Emmy and actually owns a Golden Pantsuit. Subscribe today!
