This week’s Climate Justice newsletter highlights the importance of solidarity and mutual aid in efforts to realize climate and environmental justice. First, we feature an interview with Olúfemi O. Táíwò, who argues that reparations are an act of solidarity with Black people and a necessary part of rectifying racial injustice and mitigating the climate crisis. Next, we revisit Tanya Gulliver-Garcia’s article on the powerful role that mutual aid organizations have played in helping communities survive and recover from environmental disasters. We continue with Lori Stern’s discussion of the importance of building a solidarity economy for organic agriculture if we are to create a resilient, equitable food system. Finally, we invite you to look at NPQ’s new job posting for a Climate Justice Senior Editor.
