Previous Episode: How Costa Rica leads conservation on land and at sea

Next Episode: What you learn after 22,000 miles at sea

Learn how race, gender, and class intersect to affect environmentalism with activist, writer, and intersectional environmentalist Leah Thomas. She breaks down what intersectional environmentalism really is, why conservationists should embrace anti-racism, and how a single, powerful post on social media ignited a movement.
