Youth's Take on Protest to Collective Care with Angel From the Bloc S2 Ep. 4

What makes organizing sustainable? Land Justice Fellows Justyce Melton and Genesis Pedraza-Hernandez talk about creating movements rooted in care, joy, and community with Angel in episode 4 of the Youth's Take Podcast!In this episode, we talk about finding a sense of collective responsibility at a young age, building friendships through organizing, and creating movements rooted in care, joy, and community. We also unpack police budgets, abolition, youth engagement, social media as an organizing tool, and why a Just Transition cannot be designed by one person, it has to be built together. Because our movements can address serious issues while still making room for fun, rest, relationships, and the things that keep us coming back.Angel, aka @angelfromthebloc, is a content creator, podcaster, social media strategist, and community organizer who uses their platform to advocate for social justice.
