Sunrise Movement Florida is building a coalition of young people in the Sunshine State to fight climate change & end the reign of fossil fuel money in politics
One of the iniatives in Miami some of our organizers are involved with. If you're local, join our coalition to fight for housing justice - and against the city of Miami's anti encampment ordinance criminalizing homelessness! In Florida, it is a #climateJustice issue
The City of Miami is evicting the homeless from downtown areas on Christmas Eve! Even by Miami's low standards, its astonishingly cruel to time an encampment sweep on Christmas Eve. #MeanMiami
@AOC@PplsAction also came to enjoy our weather (staff retreat) without doing anything about the local struggle. We're desperately under-organized, and suffering from non-profit industrial complex issues - losing badly. Y'all have the ability to help us finally get our sh*t together
@MontalvoFL27@AOC@aoc please don't tourist in Miami while locals are struggling to build power. We're extremely under organized compared to other major metro areas. Same stands for @PeoplesAction that had a staff retreat here without having an affiliate in the state. It's weird.
This infrastructure bill isn’t the climate bill we threw down for last cycle. We fought for real results. This is only a stepping stone to tackle the climate crisis.
If @POTUS is concerned for the future (or at the very least election outcomes), he’s gotta pass #BuildBackBetter
BREAKING – Young climate activists with @sunrisemvmt confronted Sen. Manchin as he stepped off his yacht this morning. “We want to live!” they say. This comes after Manchin once again declines @POTUS’ Build Back Better Act, holding hostage significant investments in climate.
organized angry voters motivate em to act by threatening electoral power - but also, organized communities &constituencies of all types build pressure in many ways~ financially, social media, the news, courts, stopping the office w/ flood of calls/occupy, NVDA, etc. Creativity✊
#Activism is in vogue these days. And we’re better for it. But let’s not mistake activism for #organizing. On this season of #TheNextMove I talk with 8 organizers about the craft of organizing & how we get beyond the choir. Check out S2 of TNM anywhere you listen to podcasts!
@350_Seattle I've clicked through so many Google Doc guides (SO GOOD) and links and can't seem to find the file that has this poster specifically - can you hook it up? will send pics if used - 'climate emergency' is all they wanted to edit
The next Global Climate Strike has been announced!
See you on September 24th - earlier if you join the network of Strike organizers at https://t.co/GUDb3eO6tL
(If you haven't signed up for Sunrise Mvmt locally - https://t.co/6I2coWj2Wt)
My Abolitionist roommate's action! To continue this work, we need to actively network, & develop a tradition of moral civil disobedience in #SouthFlorida (like other metros have).
Does an Anti-colonial & #Abolitionist Climate Action org sound good? Join- https://t.co/6I2coWj2Wt
@AustenErblat My roommate's action! The one blocking the parking garage, right-side passed recently. Just a few hours after the hospital released him/wouldn't care for him any longer- during a suicide attempt... so I'm looking for some good photos. Thanks for covering!
@rsgexp Netroots Nation virtual panel w/ Ganz, Angela Davis, Faith Spotted Eagle & Destiny Hodges, a youth climate organizer who addresses key movement issues, & moderated PowerShift21 headliner w/ Davis
Oct7-9📅 selection mid-Aug. Moonshot, I included you too. Will email✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿
Imagine comparing climate change to The Day After Tomorrow and yet refusing to even take the low hanging fruit of banning fracking.
Ok @amyklobuchar 🙄
This ain't it. The climate crisis doesn't call for sweeping rhetoric backed up only by half-assed action.
This is a big win for @SunriseMvmt. But don't take it from us. Take it from @BetoORourke at the #ClimateTownHall
We're just getting started, and we're not stopping until our government is giving climate change the attention it deserves, by rolling out a #GreenNewDeal
#ClimateTownHall is the top trending tag in the United States
People want to see presidential candidates talking about solutions. It’s time for a #ClimateDebate
“We want an America that’s not just working for the fossil fuel industry, but an America that’s working for everyone.”—@ewarren at #ClimateTownHall embracing the vision and promise of a #GreenNewDeal
