BIPOC voices (Black, Indigenous, and People of Colour) have been typically excluded from mainstream environmental movements, yet are crucial to building stronger, healthier, and more sustainable communities. For our first episode, we are in conversation with Climate Recentered, a climate action group created with the aim of reshaping the white narrative of climate organizing, centering joy over shame, and building a community of care. Climate Recentered was created by four BIPOC youth from so-called Surrey, British Columbia. Today, we are joined by a core member, Zoha Faisal, who shares her experiences navigating eco-anxiety, learning from intergenerational stories, and building supportive, loving communities.
