This is an interview that brings awareness to issues long faced by black people and people of color in Appalachia. The new activist group is trying to voice concerns on the issues black people and people of color face with regards to pollution, access to basic needs and resources, etc. However, the activist group doesn't tell communities what they need but rather asks what they wish would be done for them to live a better life. Through these investigations they hope to inform and create a better targeted policy.
