REBROADCAST: With Extinction Rebellion (XR) dominating the news headlines recently, I thought I would rebroadcast this episode of Handheld Travel from a few months ago. For two days, I embedded myself at Camp Nudja to see what motivates activists participating in the Adani blockade. It’s a tragedy I only had two days, I needed two weeks.
While this group at Camp Nudja isn’t specifically associated with XR, there is a lot of cross pollination.

and to find out more about the Adani blockade, read Anna Krien’s excellent series in The Saturday Paper:
This was only the second or third independent radio piece I had made at that point, so all errors our mine. Thanks to everyone who took the time to put with my questions.
