Our apologies! In the email below, we got the time wrong—each webinar begins at 6pm, not 7.
We’ve also added two new speakers for September 17: speaker Nikkita Oliver will be joined by Jerrell Davis and Oloth Insyxiengmay (Decriminalize Seattle) on Defund Police.
Please join us!

Jeanne —
Join us next Thursday (9/10) at 7pm for the first of our Climate Justice is Racial Justice webinars — a learning series on the ways racial inequities intersect with the threats of climate change. These fights are deeply interconnected, and the way to build a healthy, resilient future is to learn, understand, and support one another in the fight against the systems of oppression that we’ve all been enmeshed in.
Each week for four weeks, a 350 Seattle team will host a guest speaker who will draw connections between racial justice issues and the work we do here at 350 Seattle. Attendees will have the chance to ask questions, and be offered a clear way to learn more and support each issue.
REGISTER HERE! Sign up for one or all!
