As an intro to some of the important conversations we have with people in our community, here’s a Moment of Truth with Ami Chen Mills / Talk of the Bay episode (on KSQD) we did earlier this year with Annie Powers. Annie Powers on the history of political action of the unhoused and the impact of Grants Pass v Johnson.
