Join us to meet Bill Moyer, the Executive Director and co-founder of the Backbone Campaign, a movement-building organization based here on Vashon Island. Bill chats with us about the origins of the Backbone Campaign, their art-driven activism, and some of their most memorable campaigns -- including helping to organize the community to block the development of a gravel mine on Maury Island in 2008. Bill tells us about a life-changing experience that solidified the backbone metaphor, shares why he's excited about the future of U.S. rail transportation, and discusses how his childhood experiences informed his passion for activism that drives social change.
