About The Response project
Our podcast consists of an interview and documentary series. Documentaries explore community-led responses to disasters like Hurricane Katrina or the war in Ukraine. Interviews feature organizers, educators, and practitioners who offer unique perspectives on themes ranging from mutual aid to revolutionary theory. Listen to every episode here.
Our award-winning 30-minute micro-budget film, “The Response: How Puerto Ricans Are Restoring Power to the People,” explores how the mutual aid centers sprung up across the island of Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria.
