Season Two of the People Power Podcast is Here!

Join us as we embark on another season, diving into topics surrounding the climate crisis while highlighting the pressing issues of environmental injustice and racial equity. Our focus is on the challenges encountered by marginalized communities, especially those of color.

We are committed to combating misinformation and cultivating an inclusive space for organizations, climate advocates, and leaders to share their stories and insights. Together, we will explore solutions that transition us from resilience to restoration, all while nurturing robust communities.

**New Episode**

This week on the People Power Podcast, Rev. Michael Malcom sits down with guest Daniel Blackman, as we take a deep dive into the crucial role of the Public Service Commission and why it matters for every family.

Daniel Blackman, a prominent figure in Georgia's political landscape, ran for the PSC to advocate for working families. His campaign was rooted in the belief that utility regulation is essential for economic mobility and community health.

Blackman emphasizes the need for PSC reform to address issues such as rising utility rates and the environmental impacts of energy policies.

We are of all colors, ages, races, religions, genders, backgrounds, and abilities, and we want to protect the people and places we love.

We are Arm in Arm.
