Radical Elders (RE) will have a contingent marching at the March to End Fossil Fuelson September 17th in front of the United Nations.
say they are excited to take part in the march––and looking forward to, for the first time, physically meeting some of their fellow organizational members.
“I think not only are we elders, but that the planet has been forcefully turned into a kind of elder planet by climate change. So, it seemed like getting active at this period in our lives was key and I wanted to be part of that.” When society misses out on what elders can provide it’s not just a shame, it can be detrimental, said Zakiya Alake, a community activist from Boston. She said the importance of passing on historical knowledge, as an elder, is vital.
RE members want to have a large presence on September 17th to show they’re concerned about climate change.
