The Called Activist
This is a podcast of the Festival Center where we will interview activists, organizers, advocates, and agents of change and hear why they do what they do. One of the best ways we find encouragement and hope is to hear how people have been transformed, to hear what sparked the passion that fuels them to create change.

Bill speaks with Alana about NDWA's goals, how the organization is responding to harmful immigration policies set by the Trump administration, and much more.
