In this second episode from Kentucky (and the final episode of season 3!), we hear from Hannah Drake, an author and activist from Louisville who writes poetry about race, gender, and social justice.

She talks about how she started writing, shares her experiences in spaces not made for her, and reads one of her most-requested poems for us.

She also reminds listeners of the problems with White Feminism and why social justice work isn\\u2019t just about \\u201cresisting our way back to comfort.\\u201d
