Walid Hakim: Green Party Candidate for South Carolina Governor

I recently posted about the Minnesota Green Party candidates who are running in the midterm elections. There are actually many Greens running in races across the country, which is heartening to see. I spotlighted one of these candidates yesterday: Pāʻele Kiakona, who is running for Maui House Representative, District 14.

Today I highlight another Green candidate by sharing the following interview with Walid Hakim, Green Party candidate for SGovernor of South Carolina.
