The Rich & The Rest of Us - Interview with Indivisible Downriver734 Founders Ashley Perry and Jessica Schering
Are we living in a two-tiered economy? The wealth of the few continues to soar, while the struggle for the majority, the working class, the middle class, gets harder every year.
On today's show, we cut through the corporate spin and the political jargon to bring you the truth about income inequality in the Great Lakes State and beyond.
Join us as we talk to the real leaders on the ground: the bold community organizers who are leading protests against major retailers demanding fair wages and ethical practices, and the grassroots activists building powerful coalitions to push back against the systems designed to keep the rich richer and the rest of us behind.
This isn't just a discussion; it's a blueprint for action. Tune in to hear stories of resilience, strategic pushback, and how communities are uniting to advocate for a more just and equitable future.
