Radicals & Revolutionaries Lab

We're still working on a new season of Radicals & Revolutionaries Lab for your listening pleasure, but while you wait, why not revisit some old favourites? My interview with June Barrett from season four was one of the most powerful and affecting experiences I've had while making this show, and I thought this was the perfect time to revisit that amazing hour.June Barrett is an organizer and leader of the We Dream in Black program within the National Domestic Workers Alliance. As a queer Jamaican immigrant, June is a grassroots feminist doing her work from an international perspective.Throughout our conversation, June shares the ins and outs of her history, starting with how she started doing domestic work at the tender age of 16 years old.
