Our guests this week are both from the Austin Justice Coalition: Chas Moore is Executive Director and Founder; Chris Harris is Director of Policy. AJC serves people who are historically and systematically impacted by gentrification, segregation, over policing, a lack of educational and employment opportunities, and other institutional forms of racism in Austin. Chas recently returned from a sabbatical and shares insights from that experience. Given the current climate of white backlash, we hear about what AJC has planned. We also have Jim Harrington, retired founder of the Texas Civil Rights Project. Michelle Manning-Scott, associate producer of the show, also joins us.
Later, we’ll hear from Austin Sanders, Staff Writer for the Austin Chronicle. In the current issue, Austin has written about the Democratic primary race in Texas US Congressional District 35. He highlights the two contenders from Austin: Greg Casar and Eddie Rodriguez. Given that the district is heavily Democratic, the winner of the primary stands a good chance of winning in November.
