About this listen

Hosts Walter Mullen and Emily Sachar examine the Red Hook Democratic Caucus do-over, highlighting newcomer Zoe Evans' late entry that nearly shifted the results. They analyze growing civic participation throughout the area, particularly how party affiliations are changing the political landscape. They also tackle a controversial land transaction involving affordable housing development and discuss how the Boat Club's eminent domain vote affected the Democratic Caucus. They also discuss the detention of Rhinebeck resident Gerson Turciosby by immigration authorities and examine how local residents have mobilized through fundraising campaigns and advocacy initiatives in response.

Produced by Emily Sachar, Walter Mullin, Matty Rosenberg, and Jennifer Hammoud at the Radio Free Rhinecilff studio
