Berry is also a member of Earth Charter Indiana, which is how he was first introduced to state politics. Since then, he’s met with Senator J.D. Ford, D-Indianapolis, and other state politicians to discuss hopes for sustainable policy.
He said he’s glad to see so many people — and young people, in particular — speaking out against SB 389. After all, it’s why he started Helping Ninjas in the first place.
