Very thrilled to officially announce that we have a new Climate Justice Program Manager added to our team! Layel has been working with us for the last several months as a contractor; you might have seen them on our feed already. They helped us complete art projects and helping build our presence at different events throughout California by spearheading Art Parties at different locations, working very closely with partner organizations and community members. It was only natural (and VERY crucial) that they become a part of our staff. Please extend a warm welcome to Layel and read a little more about them below! #Repost @thechosenlyfe ・・・ I’m ecstatic to announce that I’m the new Climate Justice Program Manager! I’ve had the amazing pleasure of supporting @CultureStrike for almost 9 months now. Through my work in Transformative Justice towards ending child sexual abuse; I’ve been working towards a vision where young people can live free and joyous. Through this vision I can see the cultural work that’s needed to foster an environment where young people can triumph. My heart wants to see a world where our air, water and land is abundant and continuously giving but . The cultural work needed are narrative shifts that uplift and bring visibility to communities of color that are directly impacted by climate change and environmental injustice & that centers them as experts, solutions that support the well being of #MamaTierra , and that requires all of us, especially queer, trans and artists of color + climate institutions to work collectively towards a shared vision. I’m excited to be working with such artists as well as communities of color primarily impacted by climate change! #IntersectionalWork #ClimateJustice #EnvironmentalJustice #LiberationWork [image description: a brown gender queer masculine presenting person is holding three dead fish who did not survived in the Salton Sea.] -- source link
