On this episode of News You Can Use, hosts Edwin Stubbs and Hannah Henrichon sit down with PASU’s Summer Comms Fellow Kane Howard to talk about Kane’s personal housing journey. Together, they explore why housing and home repair assistance programs matter so much—especially in Pennsylvania, where aging homes can make staying housed a real challenge. They discuss how making repairs affordable keeps families in their communities and why investing in safe, livable housing is a must for real change

This week on News You Can Use, Edwin and Hannah are getting real about freedom—what it means, who gets it, and who stands in the way. We're joined by Sarina from our Movement Politics department and Omar from Make The Road for a no-BS conversation about fighting back against ICE, big money, and rising fascism in our communities. We talk organizing, sharing power, and picking each other up when things get tough. If you’re ready to stand up for freedom for ALL (not just corporations and billionaires), you don’t want to miss this one! Pull up a chair, hit play, and join the fight to keep America truly free.

This episode, hosts Edwin and Hannah celebrate Pride Month ’25 with a special guest: Alec Walker-Serrano, our new Traditional Comms Organizer! 🌈 Together, they dive into the current queer political landscape in Pennsylvania, unpacking the wins, challenges, and what’s next for our community.
