After a season that journeys through the history of environmental and climate justice, how to identify good and bad solutions to climate change, the importance of storytelling and creativity in the movement, we conclude with a focus on the most foundational element of the work: each of us, our capacity for self-transformation and leadership, and our relationships in the ecosystems that are our families, neighborhoods, and communities. The Jemez Principles of Democratic Organizing includes a “commitment to self-transformation,” recognizing that “We must be the values that we say we’re struggling for and we must be justice, be peace, be community.” Organizations like the Kheprw Institute focus on just that – community empowerment through self-mastery. In this episode, guests Aghilah Nadaraj and Asli Mwaafrika from Kheprw share what it means to build “community wealth” and how leadership is within each of us. You’ll also hear from Najari Smith, founder of Rich City Rides, on his journey from Brooklyn, New York, to Richmond, California, and how he channeled the voices of his community into the visionary bike cooperative and ecosystem that it is today. Lastly, you’ll meet Climate Justice Alliance’s co-executive director Marion Gee, who talks about personal loss, grief, and her calling to leadership. We hope you’ve enjoyed Stories from Home, Season 2.

Episode 3 - Reclaiming Our Future: Community Resilience in the Face of COVID-19
Earlier this year, the COVID-19 pandemic swept the world and pressed pause on society as it was before, forcing even the powers that be to confront how extractive behaviors have left a gaping hole where social safety nets should be. We are witnessing and demonstrating community resiliency, people power and the strength of Just Transitions as we reconnect with more intuitive ways of being, and as our neighbors and loved ones uplift one another and support each other through this struggle. In late March, Keenan Rhodes and Jessica Xiao speak with leaders from five member organizations of the Climate Justice Alliance over Zoom (you may notice some variations in audio quality and Internet connection), who shared with us how they are responding to and existing in the current moment. Our guests: Joshua Dedmond, National Outreach Coordinator at Co-Op Jackson and the Youth and Young Worker Organizer for Labor Network for Sustainability https://cooperationjackson.org/ https://www.labor4sustainability.org/ Doria Robinson, the Executive Director of Urban Tilth https://www.urbantilth.org/ Darryl Jordan, the senior organizer at East Michigan Environmental Action Council (EMEAC) Piper Carter, the events coordinator and organizer with EMEAC Aqelah Amani Amatullah Miyzaan, youth organizer with EMEAC http://www.emeac.org/ Alvina Wong, the Campaign and Organizing Director with the Asian Pacific Environmental Network (APEN) https://apen4ej.org/ Tom BK Goldtooth, the Executive Director of the Indigenous Environmental Network https://www.ienearth.org/ Explore the Climate Justice Alliance resources page here: https://climatejusticealliance.org/coronavirus/ Grassroots Power and Vision in the Time of COVID-19 Webinar: https://climatejusticealliance.org/funders/#Grassroots-Power-and-Vision-in-the-Time-of-COVID-19
