#GrassRoot_Ohio host #CarolynHarding with #AtticusGarden and #DuckBardus - Street Medics, the first responders that are there for You and Me, for anyone who may get hurt during a Street Protest. \n\nAtticus Garden resides in Columbus, on the South side where he is serving his 2nd term as Area Commissioner, representing the wonderful, beautiful, and diverse neighborhood of Southern Orchards (District 2). Atticus was first introduced to Street Medics during his time at Standing Rock reservation in 2016, where he spent 2 months at the Oceti Sakowin Camp providing medical aid during the historic gathering of tribes, allies and people from all walks of life standing in solidarity to halt the Dakota Access Pipeline. Inspired by these events and people, Atticus has spent the past 4 years providing medical aid at protests, demonstrations, and community events all over the US- North Dakota, Los Angeles, D.C., New York City, and predominantly Columbus where he has supported over several hundred events.\n\nDuck Bardus has spent many years in grassroots politics in Ohio. They received training in the winter of 2016 at Standing Rock and have volunteered to provide first aid at countless protests since, notably during the George Floyd protests in Columbus and in the Autonomous Zone at the George Floyd Memorial in Minneapolis. Duck also volunteers on the board of Frontline Wellness, an NGO that coordinates medical care for high-risk activists.\nduckbardus@gmail.com\n\nGrassRoot Ohio w/ Carolyn Harding - Conversations with every-day people, working on important issues here in Columbus and all around Ohio!\nThere's a time to listen and learn, a time to organize and strategize, And a time to Stand Up/ Fight Back!\nEvery Friday 5:00pm, EST on 94.1FM & streaming worldwide @ WGRN.org\n\nWe now air on Sundays at 4:00pm EST, at 107.1 FM, Wheeling/Moundsville WV on WEJP-LP FM.\n\nLook for #GrassRoot_Ohio soon on WCRS FM 92.7/98.3.\n\nContact Us if you would like GrassRoot Ohio on your local station.\n\nCheck us out and Like us on Face Book: https://www.facebook.com/GrassRootOhio/\n\nCheck us out on Instagram:\nhttps://www.instagram.com/grassroot_ohio/\n\nIf you miss the Friday broadcast, you can find it here: All shows/podcasts archived at SoundCloud! https://soundcloud.com/user-42674753\n\nGrassRoot Ohio is now on Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/.../grassroot-ohio/id1522559085\n\nThis GrassRoot Ohio interview can also be found on YouTube: https://youtu.be/Cpqnxi166DY\n\nIntro and Exit music for GrassRoot Ohio is "Resilient" by Rising Appalachia: https://youtu.be/tx17RvPMaQ8\n\nPhoto by @maddiemcgarvey
