blackgirl on mars: notes on a life in copenhagen (or how my alienation brings me closer to people).

Continuing our conversation on Radical Healing, Food Justice warrior Kelly Curry joins hosts Lesley-Ann Brown & Deborah Cowell to discuss her new book "Until the Streets of the Hood Flood with Green" which chronicles the birth of TESLA.
