Dear John,

We began the new year with assessment and reflection from our 70+ members
grounded in the US, Puerto Rico and Guam. Since then, the COVID-19 pandemic
ensued and we have all (membership and staff alike) found ourselves digging
deep to be more strategic, intentional and loving with ourselves and
communities. In so doing, we’ve found new and creative ways to support
frontline communities and our members right now through direct support,
deep needs analysis/listening and supporting frontline thought leadership.

CJA RELEASES COVID CONVERSATION BETWEEN FRONTLINE LEADERS

In April, we began a series of conversations with CJA members to talk
candidly about how the pandemic is affecting their communities, their needs
and priorities. THIS PODCAST EPISODE, “Reclaiming Our Future: Community
Resilience in the Face of COVID-19 [3]” brings together TOM BK GOLDTOOTH
(Indigenous Environmental Network), ALVINA WONG (Asian Pacific
Environmental Network), DORIA ROBINSON (Urban Tilth), JOSHUA DEDMOND (Co-op
Jackson), DARRYL JORDAN, PIPER CARTER, and AQELAH AMANI AMATULLAH MIYZAAN
(East Michigan Environmental Action Council) in conversation about how we
are existing -- and building the future -- now.

Listen Now! [3]

Stay tuned for our next episode on the importance of Just Recovery and the
dangers of disease/disaster capitalism with Jayeesha Dutta (Another Gulf is
Possible) and Jodi Lasseter (North Carolina Climate Justice Collective).

Mutual Aid in the Time of COVID

As we continue to look for new and improved ways to support our
communities, fight the climate crisis and lift up solutions from the
frontlines, WE THINK YOU’LL ENJOY OUR NEWEST ARTICLE ON MUTUAL AID [8]
AND HOW BEST TO SHOW UP IN THESE CRITICAL SPACES. If you’re interested in
directly supporting climate justice organizations close to you check out

You also won’t want to miss CJA’S OWN, ANGELA MAHECHA ADRAR, IN HER
MOST RECENT OPED PUBLISHED IN THE HILL [10] ABOUT THE IMPORTANCE OF FEDERAL
POLICY THAT TRULY ADDRESSES THE NEEDS OF BLACK AND BROWN COMMUNITIES and
the lessons we can learn from the climate justice movement’s rich
herstory.

See you in the struggle!
