About this listen

Climate Justice Radio is a podcast produced by Climate Justice Toronto (CJTO), a grassroots group of young people across the Greater Toronto Area committed to building a powerful, irresistible movement to stop the climate crisis by confronting its root causes: Capitalism, Colonialism, and White supremacy. This podcast will cover a wide range of issues connected to Climate Justice, everything from how to get involved, to climate anxiety and solidarities across movements. Our goal is to engage Climate Justice Radio listeners in the co-creation of the climate justice movement that is playful, accessible and intersectional. We’ll be highlighting local stories of organizing, art making and community building.Copyright CJTO Art

Our guests are Stuart Basden, Keara Lightning, Ben Donato-Woodger, Kristine, Rivka Goetz, and Léo Jourdan. This mini series emerges from Amanda’s doctoral research with CJTO, a two-year ethnographic community-based participatory research project tentatively entitled “Actualizing Everything: Affective Activism, Effective Politics, and the Future of Climate Justice Organizing in Canada”.
