Greenaction for Health and Environmental Justice is proud to announce our new environmental justice multi-media project, Power Up for Justice! Each month, Greenaction will produce and release a new segment featuring grassroots voices from the frontlines of environmental justice campaigns in urban, rural, and Indigenous communities.
The segment is viewable online on our new YouTube channel @GreenactionforJustice, and will feature interviews with community leaders and campaign action footage from protests, community meetings, and historical archival materials from the early days of the environmental justice movement. Subscribe to our channel for more!
Power Up for Justice! is powered by the knowledge that the environmental justice movement, from its very beginnings, has a rich history of struggle and victories for health and justice. We believe that it is important to preserve and share this incredible history from the frontlines so that communities faced with pollution and injustice can know the history in their own and other communities, and make their own history! Know Your History, and Make Your Own!
