In this captivating interview, she engages in a poignant conversation with Rev Yearwood, delving into her inspiring journey as a community leader and her relentless pursuit of equitable rights for marginalized groups. Together, they explore the critical issue of the water crisis in Jackson, Mississippi—a crisis disproportionately affecting Black communities due to historical neglect and systemic disparities. Lumumba’s powerful insights and activism take center stage as they shed light on the urgent need for systemic change and sustainable solutions in the face of this pressing environmental and social challenge. Tune in as these two influential voices tackle the intersection of environmental justice and civil rights in a conversation that promises to be both enlightening and empowering.
