Seeking Justice: On Repeat, In Every Language, Unceasingly

For this final Living Downstream episode of the season, we're
dropping in on three recent webinars:


One gathering considered Social and Environmental Justice at
Upaya Zen Center in New Mexico. Another knitted together poetry
and a powerful environmental film. It was put on by the
Geraldine R. Dodge Poetry Program. And a third event was
cheekily called Toxics are a Drag, and was billed as a
panel discussion on toxic beauty products in the queer
community. That was hosted by one of the most important grass
roots environmental groups in the country: New York City's
WEACT for Environmental Justice.

First, this show has an update on what's happening right now,
the last week of October 2021. I called White House
Environmental Justice Advisory Council member Dr. Robert
Bullard, often called the father of environmental justice in
this country. He spoke to me just days before leaving for
COP26, the United Nations climate change conference set to
start next week in Glasgow.
