On this special edition of Below the Radar, guest host Tiffany Muller Myrdahl (AV Gender, Sexuality and Women’s Studies and AV Urban Studies) interviews Brett Stoudt.

In this episode, Tiffany and Brett talk about what participatory action research is, the Public Science Project and Morris Justice Project, and what it means to do research with and for the community rather than about it.
