In this political moment, we are so grateful to share with you the final episodes of our Crosspollination series. In these transformational times of simultaneous pain and potential, may we continue to weave & fortify our relationships with ourselves, each other, our ancestors, with land, with water and the other beings that call this earth home. 

May these conversations support you and your loved ones.

Our final iteration of the Crosspollination community block party series is Roots of Justice: Protecting the Land, Protecting the People. Because of the fullness of the dialogue, this event will be shared out in 3 episodes. Join us as we ask: how do we embody care? What ancestral memories guide our relationships with land? With water? What does reciprocity look and feel like for each one of us? How does art nourish us as we build the future we need?

For this panel, we invited collaborators and community organizations we’ve created with in different ways, and it was beautiful to bring everyone together and hear them weave insights and lessons about climate justice, Queer Trans Black Indigenous & people of color (QTBIPOC) led land stewardship, rematriation, and land back in action.

Before we hear from our panelists, we begin with this beautiful opening, featuring musical artists Sam & Nikbo, and our very own We Rise co-founder, co-conspirator, nicole gervacio.
