Just as every tree is anchored by a taproot, our work is anchored by relationships. Join our newsletter to connect with a global community on the frontlines of climate justice.
If there’s one thing the Gulf South is going to do, it’s rise up. Our work is rooted in the community responses to Hurricane Katrina, the 2010 BP Oil Drilling Disaster, and Hurricane Ida. We honor and build on the efforts of Black and Indigenous communities by invoking accountability, abundance, and justice. Together, we’re forging connections that strengthen and sustain frontline climate leaders across the Gulf and Global South. We invite you to rise up and join us as we move toward liberation.
Rise up with us
Black Liberation
Our Roots
Black liberation is key to climate justice. When Black people are free, everyone is free.
Black Liberation requires that we combat anti-Black racism and center the lived experiences of global Black resistance to unlock and innovate climate solutions that make a more sustainable world.
Our Future
liberation horizon
We move with “replicable gravity,” a force so strong it can alter our direction toward liberation.
Some climate scientists and activists see 2030 as a point of no return. We see it as a turning point for choosing sustainability over scarcity, collective governance over authoritarianism, and stewardship over predatory extraction.
We choose a horizon full of free people practicing hope, solidarity, mutuality, care, and compassion in the spaces and places we call home. We invite you to imagine and build this world with us.
OUR
Krewe
Across the Gulf South, the Krewe organizes and leads convenings. Our Krewe of chefs, attorneys, artists, parents, and frontline organizers is cultivating a climate movement that leads with love and abundance.
