In the second part of the conversation, Russo talks with filmmaker David Usui about his acclaimed documentary “Been Here Stay Here”, which captures the very real struggle for the 400 or so residents of Tangier Island who are trying to preserve their rich history while facing a very uncertain future; all the while, grappling with the harsh predictions of science while holding on to their deep evangelical Christian faith that defines them. The film will be screened at the Roseland Theatre in Onancock, VA this weekend. More information about the film and the screening times click here: https://roselandonancock.com/ and
