Race and Climate Justice Gathering - May 22 - Power Mapping
You're invited to the May 22nd Race and Climate Justice Gathering!  Space is limited to the first 65 people who sign-up.  

As always, the event will be interactive, participatory, educational and fun.  

This month the agenda will include:

* Impromptu Networking and 15% Solutions

* Race and Climate Justice Power Mapping*

* Action Stations

* Preview of exciting July events with Jacqueline Patterson, Director of the NAACP Environmental and Climate Justice Program Director

* What's your 15% Solution for next month?

BACKGROUND:

The intersections between racial justice and climate justice are absolutely vital!  Communities of color are the most impacted by climate disruption, and the least responsible for it.  

These bi-monthly gatherings emerged from 2014 trainings for climate activists led by Dr Heather Hackman on the connections between race, white privilege, and climate justice.  Many participants wanted to keep on meeting so that we did not lose momentum, and to broaden the group to include others who hadn't attended the trainings.  

The gatherings are led by volunteers, and designed to help us get to know each other and build relationships; deepen our analysis of the interconnections between race and climate justice; build our skills and effectiveness; and help us hold ourselves and each other accountable in taking positive action for change.

FREE CHILDCARE IS AVAILABLE ON REQUEST.  

All are also welcome to planning meetings on the second Monday of the month from 6-8 pm at THS, 1901 Martin Luther King Jr Way S., Seattle WA 98144.

*POWER MAPPING: Power is the engine that drives all social change - positive, negative, and otherwise.  To be successful agents of change, we have to understand what power we need to make the change we want - as well as what kind of power our opposition, allies and selves already have.  We'll do a fun, participatory exercise to take stock of the power we all have through our social, activist and work connections, and begin to chart a path for collectivizing our power and applying it to the race and climate justice changes we want to see.
