Epsode 2: The Plague of Racism and Colonialism with Dr. Rupa Marya of the Do No Harm Coalition and Rupa and the April Fishes

The Plague

Our second episode of the Plague features an interview with Dr. Rupa Marya of the Do No Harm Coalition, and the band Rupa and the April Fishes. Dr. Marya explains how the racism and colonialism in daily life, the grocery store, the workplace (including the hospital she works in), and in global politics, makes Covid and other plagues more destructive. We discuss this societal plague, and how to cure it through anti-racist work and reclaiming the commons. Rupa then shares a song from her latest album, Growing Upward.
