Intersectional environmentalism argues that the same systems of oppression that oppress people also oppress and degrade the planet.

The Intersectional Environmentalist by Leah Thomas

March 2, 2022 by Emmalita Leave a Comment

There is a person in my life with whom I share many values, but he consistently dismisses race and gender as things about which he ought to be concerned.  Because he doesn’t consider himself to hold racist beliefs, he doesn’t understand why we’ve all been talking about race when we really ought to be focused on climate change. Since I am a known radical, he has largely dismissed my insistence that climate change can’t be solved without also dismantling patriarchy and white supremacy. While my […]

Veins pulsing with lightning.” So we pick up with Moritz and Ollie pretty much right where the last book left off. They’ve discovered the truth about […]

I really enjoyed this book, both before and after the bizarre twist that occurs. Reading some other reviews on Goodreads, it seems like most people either loved the twist, too, or let it destroy their opinion of the book.

If you’re at all interested in reading this book, I […]
