Protests matter because they challenge the regime's legitimacy, remind us we're not alone, and connect us with incredible people fighting to protect human rights in an era of rising technofascism. At the People’s March in Washington, DC, in January, which protested MAGA fascism, Andrea met Dr. Meena Bewtra, a physician with Doctors for America—a group of doctors on the frontlines of advocating for healthcare as a human right. In this live taping with our Patreon community, Dr. Bewtra answers listeners’ questions. If you have a question for her, let us know, and we’ll do our best to get it answered. In the meantime, you can follow Doctors for America on social media. The group recently sued the Trump White House over the removal of health information from vital government websites.
