In our first podcasted episode I sit down with my good friend Clara Alvarez Caraveo, an islander and a researcher with the Urban Institute. We talk about her research on the effects of the public charge rule and coronavirus, her work to make the Urban Institute a more diverse and equitable organization, and how growing up on the island influenced her.
Her work is extremely important and I loved getting to hear more about what she does. In the episode we talk about the possible projections of how COVID-19 could spread in Avalon. You can check out her report with those projections below.
Clara’s been listening to a lot of funk and soul so I hope you enjoy this week’s playlist too.
Thanks for Shootin’ The Shrimp with me, Clara!
