Our planet is on fire and we cannot breathe. From the criminal arson ravaging the Amazon rainforest to the wildfires raging on the US West Coast, our planet and communities are under attack. The smoke has turned our days into nights – in the middle of a pandemic that attacks our bodies' respiratory system.

These are not isolated incidents. They are symptoms of broken systems that perpetuate the destruction of the environment, place profit over people, and enable systemic racism.

We partnered with The Leap, The Intercept, the Movement for Black Lives, and a coalition of organizations to bring you a short animated film with a message of hope.

Message from the Future II: The Years of Repair dares to dream of a future in which 2020 is a historic turning point, where the lessons of the COVID-19 pandemic and global uprisings against racism drive us to rebuild a better society in which no one is sacrificed, and everyone is essential.
