Honoring The Life Of Dr. Alice Green

Hudson Mohawk Magazine

This is a special honoring the life of Dr. Alice P. Green. Dr. Green passed away suddenly on the afternoon of August 20, 2024. She was a civil rights leader, an advocate for the marginalized, and a woman with a radical and fierce belief in human freedom. Hudson Mohawk Magazine interviewed Alice many times since our founding six years ago. This special presents a few of those interviews, as well as two new ones.

The other segments are from the August 23 march in Dr. Green’s memory organized by the Center for Law and Justice; a 2021 interview by Yolissa Richardson with Alice on the mental health issues in the prison system; an interview Mark did with Alice about the police tearing down the tent encampment at the police station in the South End in Fed. 2022; and we finish with a 2020 interview by Elizabeth Press with Dr Green and Paul Grondahl.
