Aftermath: My Mother

I start with my mother, Doña Edna Garcia. I had visited Puerto Rico at Thanksgiving last year to see my family and I shoved a microphone in their faces. I talk with my mom about what it was like after Maria hit but mostly about how the politics of the island could change. Originally I aired this as two episodes, but I’ve combined them here. I also refer back to a conversation I had with Dr. Jacob Remes in Disasters, a bonus episode. If you haven’t heard that interview, don’t worry. This will make sense. But you should listen to it because it’s good. Jacob is really smart.
