Lesley Garrett, Bowling Green resident, leads Kentuckians through community organizing and political activism. Garrett has worked on various projects including renewable energy for a Western Kentucky homeless shelter, dismantling white supremacy and ensuring equality for all. “Organizing is inherent to being human, I feel,” Garrett said. “We build relationships with one another, take care of each other and adjust when things aren’t quite right. I think that in order for us to be our best individual selves, we need to be working with everyone around us to collectively make those adjustments so we can all thrive.”
