      In the opening episode of North Star Gaze Season 3, host Erica Phillips welcomes Dr. Adrienne Hollis—environmental toxicologist, attorney, and nationally recognized leader in environmental justice—as co-host for a quarter focused on GIS and Environmental Justice.

From redlining and disaster preparedness to mentorship and non-traditional partnerships, this conversation sets the stage for a powerful season examining how geography can be a tool for justice rather than exclusion.
