Description
This week in honor of Earth Day, we’re taking a break from our daily COVID coverage, and sharing an episode we recorded pre-pandemic. Maria and Julio talk with climate activists Julian Brave NoiseCat and Jennifer Allen about their experiences organizing for environmental justice for Indigenous and POC communities. ITT Staff Picks: - Julian writes about the environmental movement and its racist history for Vice. - More than 160 environmental defenders were killed in 2018, The Intercept reports. - The New York Times delivers a “crash course on climate change” looking back at the 50 years since the first Earth Day. As schools shut and services become difficult to access, this is an especially tough time for our LGBTQ youth of color. If you’re a part of this community, and have been struggling with the idea of home or finding a safe place to shelter, we would love to hear from you. Call us to leave a voicemail on the In The Thick hotline at (505) 226-8973 or send us a voice memo via email to [email protected].
