Thank you Resource Generation for the following:

We know that climate disasters are a direct product of all the other systemic failures in our society. For instance, housing insecurity is only magnified by climate insecurity—as climate disasters can, and have, destroyed homes in a matter of minutes. Historically corporate lobbying, funded by wealthy people, has prioritized the expansion of fossil fuels over protecting our communities. In times like these, we lean on our movement partners’ wisdom about how to proceed and support. Today, we are learning from Movement For Black Lives member Southerners on New Ground’s (SONG) wisdom: 

 

“We know that nothing about this disaster or what is happening to our people is natural. It is not natural for police officers and militiamen to guard stocked grocery stores in areas without food or water. It is not natural for workers in Erwin, TN to be missing after being forced to continue working as their town flooded. It is not natural to leave people in cages while cities evacuate. It is not natural to plan to pave over forest wetlands to build a Cop City when flooding in Atlanta worsens each year. It is not natural that our region will have to fight tooth and nail for recovery resources while our government spends billions funding genocide. In the face of it all, we must do the most natural thing we can, we must turn towards each other.”

 

Indeed, as catastrophic as these moments are, they can also be transformative as communities come together to respond, and in our best moments imagine another world as possible. Please consider donating to Mutual Aid Disaster Relief who are doing incredible work and need our support and any other ways you can redistribute power and be in solidarity.

As always:----------------------------------
