In this episode, Savanna and Sofia sit down with Winter Denipah, a longtime member of Tewa Women United’s Youth Council, for a powerful conversation on her work with Tewa Women United and what it’s like to step into activism as a teenager, and her hopes for the future.

We discuss what brought Winter into the organizing world while she was still in elementary school, what’s been inspiring her ever since, and her message for other young people who are ready to get involved. Tune in to learn more about her story!
