To wrap up our series on homelessess, Carl talks with Ariadna Phillips, founder of South Bronx Mutual Aid, about supporting asylum seekers in New York. Ariadna walks us through the origins of the mutual aid group during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic and how this model meets community need when systems continue to fail us - including when asylum seekers were bused to New York this past summer. Ariadna tells us what this action looked like behind the scenes, the ways our government dropped the ball and how we can continue to provide support.
