In our first episode of Apathy is Not an Option, we explore the how the ongoing fight for civil rights in Alabama, the historical significance of the Selma Bridge Jubilee, and the deep roots of activism can pave the way to confronting new and evolving threats to civil rights. From grassroots organizing to legal victories that reshaped the national landscape, this conversation highlights the resilience and power of collective action.
