Event
Resilience at the Crossroads of Race and Climate Justice
July 5th 3-6pm
Daybreak Star
It is the 10 year anniversary of Hurricane Katrina, we've since seen numerous harmful and unjust results occur when government doesn't resource or support climate vulnerable communities, especially working class black and brown communities. We've also seen frontline communities rise up and come up with the solutions needed to weather the storm. Utilizing art, stories, and dance, we will begin to dissect the many ways people of color can begin to heal from the trauma when facing environmental racism and continue to build resiliency.
