In this podcast, we explore people’s various visions for the future of society and the environment. I, Gracelyn McClure, chat with leaders in the Environmental Justice Movement, including youth activists, community change-makers, professors from the University of Minnesota, and other experts in the field, in order to compile a diverse, unique vision of what a just future could look like. We touch on capitalism, colonialism, white supremacy, and patriarchy within the context of labor, agriculture, water, energy, Indigenous sovereignty, policing, and youth being centered in the movement.
