🌍 Growing Social Resilience in Times of Crisis ❤️🔥
Earth Day doesn't feel very celebratory this year. Despite decades of activism, we are seeing the new regime attempt to rollback any climate justice progress we've achieved. Our movement for a liberatory, sustainable world is a longer road than we'd like.
To help us all move through the discomfort of living amidst climate collapse, while organizing for a better world, Taj Smith and I are hosting a movement gathering on April 24th.
Learn how social media influences our emotions and how we can build stronger self-care and community-care practices to better support ourselves online.
