Connections: Grass-roots activism in Geneva

Grass-roots activism is gaining in popularity, particularly since last fall's elections. In Geneva, we meet the Geneva Women's Assembly and Tools for Social Change, which are engaged in a wide range of local and national politics. We're broadcasting live from our WEOS studio in Geneva. Our guests:

  • Hannah Dickinson, member of the Geneva Women's Assembly, and director of the Writing and Enriched Curriculum Program at Hobart and William Smith Colleges
  • Jeremy Wattles, co-founder of Tools for Social Change, and associate director of the Center for Community Engagement and Service-Learning at Hobart and William Smith Colleges
