Perspectives: Isaias Hernandez

Isaias Hernandez, the QueerBrownVegan, was so kind as to take some time to join me on MindMatters and we delved into such important conversations. Isaias tells us his journey to becoming the Climate educator he is today and what put him on this journey. Isaias also highlights the intersectionality we need to stop turning a blind eye to in the climate justice movement. Isaias also shares his experiences from college, dealing with racism, and gives us some advice on how to introduce sustainability in our lives. We have a candid discussion on how privilege plays a role in activism, and how important the principle of “accountability” in any movement. Another important perspective we got a chance to talk about was the idea of perfectionism in the climate movement and activism as a whole and the impact on our mental health and Isaias shares what nature means to him. Thank you Isaias for taking the time to share your perspective with us. We are community Connect-Grow-Learn Together
