- Are U.S. territories part of this conversation?
Thank you for always pointing out the inequality in the U.S. system. Is there room to explore the U.S. territories as well? Industrialized islands like St. Croix have been the cash cow for its colonizers since…well.. its colonization. Modern examples include the former Hess refinery that have excluded locals from economic gains and devastated the island’s environment and public health.

Thank you Stacey for everything you have done to save our democracy and to inspire us to take action. Your courage, commitment and clarity have given me renewed hope. I’m not just listening. I’m hopeful, I’m paying attention and I’m taking action. Thank you for reminding us that our voices matter and that democracy is worth fighting for.
Apple Podcasts5Bdog goesUnited States25 days ago - Great show, great guests
I just discovered this podcast and it is such a light! I just listened to the July 14 ep—I live in Houston, the murder of Lorenzo Salgado was so deeply felt by many, many people here. Thank you for your words and for your work, they have been so inspiring to me. Also I don’t know if it was a joke but if it wasn’t, I would be Very Seated if you did a ‘tax-system for a healthy democracy’ episode. 👀
