Acting in Solidarity: Antiracism in Climate Activism
A Book Discussion Series
In January, 2021 the Climate Solutions Accelerator held a three-part online series of facilitated discussion on Ibram X. Kendi's How To Be An Antiracist.
Purposes of this series:
To engage climate activists and advocates in the Finger Lakes Region in collaboratively learning about anti-racism.
Participants gain an understanding of the intersectionality between race and climate.
Participants gain an understanding of and steps to integrate anti-racist actions into their climate activism.
Facilitators included:
Calvin Eaton, Director/Founder and Chief Content Officer, 540 WMain, Inc.
Kit Miller, Director, M.K. Gandhi Institute for Nonviolence
Paola Betchart, Senior Worker Rights Advocate, Worker Justice Center of New York
We’ve put together a summary guide from the series—this guide includes themes/goals, summaries, and discussion questions from each of the three sessions, and links to additional reading and videos.
