Episode Synopsis

Learn all about Governor's Island, a lesser-known national park in an unexpected place--NYC. I'll discuss the monument's immersive history, quirky (and eerie) attractions, and the city's fascinating response to the climate change that threatens the island. You'll also learn about the systemic racism buried in Central Park, and how climate change disproportionately affects communities of color. Lastly, find out how climate change's impact on Lady Liberty is a metaphor for our nation.
