Originally from California, having fled the USA after being arrested 92 times for peaceful protest. She has been very involved in the peace movement, specifically around the issue of certain military systems deployed by the US, inclusive of many arrests of a nonviolent nature.
For the past seven years, prior to coming to NZ she has been very active in the organic food movement, and saying NO to Monsanto in an effort to stop massive pesticide spraying in the small town in Southern California where she was living.
Listen to her many adventures around those issues of an interesting political nature. Sunshine came to NZ believing the hype of Clean Green, Independent NZ and has been quite disappointed to find so much of the USA quite entrenched here.
She holds hope in her heart that people will wake up to what is happening and to take their power back before it is too late.
In this inspiring story of raw courage and benevolence she is happy to contribute her voice based on so many years of involvement in standing up for the sovereignty of community and the land.
