Environmental Justice Visionaries along the Mississippi River

From our urban surroundings to the Mississippi River region and the planetary, how do environmental justice visionaries galvanize structural, anti-racist policy change to support sustainable, healthy life along the Mississippi and around the world? 

New Orleans Center for the Gulf South welcomes Minnesota-based Community Members for Environmental Justice leader Roxxanne O’Brien and Gulf South environmental justice leaders Jo Banner (The Descendants Project), Sage Michael Pellet (Healthy Gulf), and moderator Michael Esealuka (Break Free From Plastic and Yale Program on Climate Change Communications), for a public conversation about how residents from North Minneapolis to New Orleans East are fighting back, creating change, and connecting with and contributing to the global movement for clean air and water on this beautiful and weathered planet.
