Author Craig Willse and organizer Imani Henry discuss housing, homelessness and the role of nonprofits in change-making (or not). Plus, an exclusive report from an upstate New York farm that’s feeding people while fighting the school-to-prison pipeline. All that and Laura Flanders, inspired by Detroit’s teachers, wonders when we’ll be ready for a grand national sick out.
