Disability advocate Julie Maury speaking at Tom Payne Park in New York City

Julie Maury speaks at the Health Freedom Now! rally in Foley Square, Manhattan on Monday, Sept. 27, 2021. I consider her one of the voices of the U.S. Pluto return, as she is describing fundamental structural problems. You may listen to her presentation on the player below.
