Show Notes
All this week we are revisiting episodes of The Dream that highlight the importance of voting for the greater good. The collective dream, if you will. Midterms are days away and so much change can happen if we get a move on. Today we hear from a former CDC microbiologist. She describes the mood there after RFK and the Trump administration tore one of our most critical government agencies apart. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
