In this inspiring podcast episode, Charlotte Bennett Schoen, an 82-year-old activist and former city council member, discusses her lifelong dedication to public service and global justice. Drawing from her experiences during the Vietnam War and her Jewish heritage, Charlotte shares her insights into the parallels between local and global issues, such as racism and immigration. She emphasizes the importance of taking intentional action and encourages women to run for office to drive change. Charlotte's work with NGOs in India, Thailand, and Burma highlights her commitment to peacebuilding and her belief in the power of local activism to influence global change.

First Friends is one of the few organizations in the tri-state area providing direct support beyond legal services for detained and non-detained immigrants: commissary funding, phone funds, bond assistance, transportation, and court accompaniment. We are in the fight every single day, and we need your support to keep going.
