Why The Way You Talk About Climate Change Matters

November 1, 2020/in climate justice, Environment, Podcasts, Rocky Top Sunrise with Sunrise Movement Tennessee, TOPICS, VIDEOS /by Justin Kanew

Hosts Owen and Cassie talk about how to talk about climate change and why it matters. The media often frames human-caused climate change as a “belief” instead of asserting it as truth and attempts to provide balance to an issue in which only one side is based in fact. We cut through the bullshit and talk about how to frame climate change in ways that will actually bring solutions.

October 16, 2020/in Education, Podcasts, TOPICS, VIDEOS, What About Us? /by Justin Kanew

Elizabeth Madiera, House Candidate for District 63, discusses the murkiness surrounding the passage of the voucher bill under her opponent Glen Casada’s “leadership”. It’s unpopular, unconstitutional, under investigation by the FBI, and unseated him as leader of the house. We need the General Assembly to be out of the Republican supermajority, better balanced, and more transparent to achieve better legislation.

Getting @GlenCasada out of #TNLeg wouldn't just be good for District 63, it would dramatically improve the whole state.
