Imagine you + all your friends watching the coolest documentary of the year

Dear John,

It’s almost time! Join us tomorrow (Saturday, Feb. 7th) for the online streaming premiere of the documentary film: Grasping at the Roots, a love letter to the Black Environmental Justice movement.

Filmed and produced by Keenan Rhodes and CJA’s own Leah Derray, Grasping at the Roots was made for the people. The only thing we ask in return is that you share it with as many people as possible. You can even host screenings at your school, church or community center anytime you like. On the film’s webpage, you can find tools that will help you share it with your community like a Q&A conversation guide, information about CJA’s Black Caucus, and more.

Watch here on 2.7.26

As temperatures and tensions rise around us, Grasping at the Roots is a chance to follow some of the people who are making positive change in Black Environmental Justice communities. It is a window into the lives of those being hit by economic hardships, community disruptions, and climate change: living next to refineries and other industrial projects while bearing the brunt of a warming climate, and doing something about it.

This 35 minute film is an opportunity to learn from people building solutions to the issues their communities face. Those who come from a long legacy of fighting for their lives and rights.

This isn’t just a documentary. It’s a call to action. We hope you enjoy it with family, friends, and community!

Love, Climate Justice Alliance
