Community Voz
Community Voz is C2C's ecofeminist radio show which presents the grassroots work that local people are doing across intersecting movements. Our radio shows are engaging conversations about issues and news you probably won't hear anywhere else. We believe in community radio and alternative media, which highlights the character, beauty and courage of the voices of people on the ground. Tune in for reflections and report backs from C2C organizers and allies on the frontlines of the struggle for farmworker justice. We are extremely grateful to the talents being volunteered by Elias Lopez, Ana Sofia Garcia, and Liz Darrow, who do all of the recording and engineering, as well as KMRE, our local non profit public radio station.

CV S12 Ep 8: Gratitude for Arundhati Roy
In this episode, Liz Darrow and Elias Lopez discuss the aftermath of the latest election season and our next steps forward as C2C and as community. We ground this conversation in the literature and philosophies of renowned author Arundhati Roy, whose ideas still serve as the keystone of C2C's organizing. It is important to spend time reexamining these foundational ideologies of the movement to assess how we will move forward. Her writing also catapults us into conversations about the recent extremes of violence in the occupation of Palestine, and how we can cultivate solidarity and trust in this time.
