"Organizing is a democratic strategy used by social movements, labor unions, under-represented communities, and marginalized groups to gain rights, win collective political power, and create positive change. 7+ million people went on climate strike this past month (in a single week). And much of this shift has been led by newer movements like Extinction Rebellion, Sunrise Movement, and the Greta Thunberg-inspired Friday's For Future / Youth Strike for Climate. What's particularly impressive is all three are largely decentralized, grassroots movements that are at most one to two years old."Link to resources + groups already putting in the work: https://www.brightest.io/climate-change-solutionThe opinions expressed by Julie Merica and Make Your Damn Bed Podcast are intended for entertainment purposes only.
