@ExtinctReal@XrYouth@ScotlandXr@XRSlough@GJRSite@XRDisabledRebel@XREducators@XRUniversities Hi there! ๐๐ผ Could you please DM us with more specific details? Weโve definitely seen the documents circulated on various comms channels (incl. some local group chats), so would be good to have a better understanding of what precisely has been blocked and by whom.
THE XR SLOUGH COMMUNITY CLIMATE JUSTICE LIBRARY IS OPEN! ๐๐๐
Dear people of #Slough, we have spent the past few months collecting some AMAZING books on climate justice ๐.
Today we are opening the collection as a FREE library accessible to all.
Please read on, RT & share!
So whose truth will the citizens assembly be considering -will they be told about UK fairshare is -202% by 2030, or the history of wealth extraction of the global South, & the racism that sacrificed the global South? https://t.co/MKnLAGoOuY
@alanwilliamz Hi Alan! ๐๐ผ
Weโre definitely interested in interrogating invisible power structures and presumptions of leadership in the movement. If there are any specific incidents youโd think would be worth sharing with us, please email them to [email protected]!
Movement Herstory - Jennifer Davis, 85, Passed away. She Led a Global Divestment Effort Over Apartheid. After leaving South Africa, she pressed colleges, churches, unions, philanthropies & others to unload stock in companies profiting from a racist system https://t.co/CmnxljHQG8
@keduzi @XRLiberation It looks like putting marginalised people at the heart of decision making and strategy decisions - something we're not yet doing imho.
When judges rule that civil disobedience against inaction on the climate crisis is justified on the basis of preventing a greater harm, then something in the culture is shifting.
A huge victory and a warning to our political leaders: get on the right side of history.
Thanks to @johnpringdns of the Disability News Service for this superb article about the recent behaviour of @metpoliceuk regarding disabled protesters https://t.co/k31INbJCBp
How can we make the centralised aspects of XR's power structure (social media, website, representatives) follow the inclusivity model of Demand 3 (a citizen's assembly) more closely? Is there any info about their diversity? @ExtinctionR@XRLondon@XRLiberation@GJRSite
This legacy must be considered when we talk about climate justice & a just transition! Under neoliberalism (the latest incarnation of colonialism) western wealth continues to be built on the brutal exploitation of people & the land. To save the Earth white supremacy must end!
We pledge to rebel against @BP_plc and hold them accountable for their crimes against indigenous peoples and the ecosystem. Thanks for asking ๐

Climate change is an issue of justice.
As health professionals working in the interest of patient & population health, we canโt be complicit in racist health charging
