EPISODE TWO: STEFF MCDERMOTT

"If you don't have love for humanity but you call yourself an environmentalist, the world will never change."

Steff McDermott is a 19-year-old environmental advocate from the Cayman Islands and a founding member of Sail for Climate Action; a project pioneered by youth from Latin America and Europe.

In this episode, Steff discusses how she goes against the current, working to elevate the often-ignored voices in the Global South and to strengthen bonds across the Atlantic Ocean. 52 Hertz host Petrice Jones and Steff talk sailing through the Bermuda Triangle, leadership, and what that journey taught her about culture, race, and history in the context of environmental activism.
