We’re asking the Chatham, VA Air Board to DENY the air compressor station needed for the MVP Southgate project. This pipeline has been denied all permits in NC and the approval of this air permit would ignore blatant environmental racism in this community.

Just received this book in the mail. @PaperhandPuppet is doing shows this month in Chapel Hill, NC and wherever you are, I need you to come see them. I will buy you beer and food. I didn’t expect to be a huge puppet promoter in my 40s, but here we are. – at Elon, NC

In a documentary that premieres next Thursday at the @varsitytheatre, filmmaker Marc Levy goes behind the scenes of @PaperhandPuppet, following the group as they come to grips with truths that are, at times, very hard for them to face. indyweek.com/culture/screen/…
