Activism in the Family - Decades of Organizing for Community Change

Kate Byrne and Bill Cavellini join Judy in the studio to share stories from their years of activism as a family. Hailing from the Midwest and the Bronx, respectively, Kate and Bill were drawn to each other’s passion for community organizing, starting with their meeting in 1990 at an eviction-related takeover and squatting action at a building on Broadway in Cambridge. Throughout the years, their work has ebbed and flowed, they have supported each other's efforts and struggles, and both their activism and family life have been driven by social justice and community care.
