Today, on the Hudson Mohawk Magazine:

We begin with a look at Congress’s recent push to require railroad unions to agree to a new contract, with a perspective from a long-time labor activist.

Then, we hear from Reshma Saujani, frequent author and the organizer of the Marshall Plan for Moms about her initiative to support gender equity for working moms.

Later on, we hear about the testing of Hudson River water by the Water Justice Lab from Doug Reed, one of the citizen scientists involved in the effort.

After that, we turn to food! Blue Mountain Center in the Adirondacks provides a space for activist retreats and conferences and food is central to their concept.

Finally, retired meteorologist Hugh Johnson joins us for our weekly look at climate and weather. This time we’ll talk about tornadoes in the Southeast, rain in California, and upcoming weather here in the capital region.
