Struggle Space to Green New Deal: Recognizing Past Racial and Environmental Injustice to Inform Urban Climate Justice Policy

EcoChampions: Dr. Tina Rosan, Dr. Megan Heckert, and Russell Zerbo

Join Tina, Megan, and Russ as they reconcile and remember the past, work to address environmental, racial, and social  injustice, and plan for climate justice by connecting present and future community needs with the Green New Deal framework.

Our speakers’ collective scholarship, critical perspective, and organizing skill will explain and inform policy and activist responses to the climate crisis, meeting this moment and prioritizing the most vulnerable and marginalized communities.

Stories of Sustainability: Act on Climate

This event is part of a three part series, Stories of Sustainability: Act on Climate, co-sponsored with the Department of Geography and Urban Studies. Together the Temple community will connect with local community voices, scholarship, and policy to explore different strategies to organize and govern for a just climate future and seek to fulfill Temple’s urban mission.
