You didn't see it on Meet the Press. You didn't see it on Face the Nation. No surprise—Fox News Sunday skipped it too. The People's Climate March was the biggest climate protest in world history—but a week ago Sunday, even as hundreds of thousands of Americans hit the streets to call for action, the most important news shows on television pretended it wasn't happening.1
But we were there. And if you want to know what happened, and how it felt, and why it mattered, you've got to hear this podcast.
And once you hear it, you'll know you're not alone: There's a movement growing and taking action that might just change history. As the saying goes: "First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win."
Whether or not you marched, don't miss this podcast. And spread the word: The climate justice movement is just getting started.
Thanks for all you do.
