On this Thursday’s Juneau Afternoon, meet Alyssa Quintyne, who describes herself as a Bajan – an American with heritage from the Caribbean island of Barbados.
Quintyne is a community organizer at the Alaska Center in Fairbanks, where it’s a full time job to encourage people, who have been left out of decisions that affect their lives, to get involved.
For Quintyne, community organizing is a constant process of finding ways around obstacles. She says it’s a good thing she’s also an artist, because she takes a creative approach to everything. https://www.gouachebody.com/
