Please give a shout out to our TSTL city-wide Education For Sustainability fellows (Kayla Stanton, Yailis Correa, Taahzje Ellis, Synceir Thornton, James Slaughter) presented last week at Temple to almost 100 people including college professors and students, high school teachers and students, representatives from Philadelphia Higher Education Network for Neighborhood Development, and members of the general public.
We earned a $1000 grant to produce a documentary video investigating the root causes of violence and how it related to environmental justice and other layers of equity. The project will also be supported by city council members Isaiah Thomas and Jamie Gauthier.
Here’s a short clip on Environmental Justice from an interview with Akilah Chatman (Drexel ’22)
