Bard College at Simon's Rock: the Early College

Green New Deal Livestream Watch Party

Tuesday, February 5, 2019

Lecture Center


Join us in watching a Sunrise livestream detailing the 2019 Green New Deal Strategy. Hubs and homes across the country will be hosting watch parties, too. These parties will unite communities to strengthen the people power needed to make the Green New Deal happen.

In 2018, the youth-led Sunrise Movement put the Green New Deal at the center of the national political agenda. For the first time, there is a proposal before Congress in line with what the world's top climate scientists say we need. Thanks to young people turning out by the thousands in DC and at hundreds of Congressional offices around the country, a historic window of opportunity has opened and we need to keep the pressure on.

The Livestream Watch Parties will outline the Sunrise strategy for building the support for the Green New Deal in every corner of the country, and to cement the Green New Deal at the top of the political agenda, so that in 2020 we can elect a President and Congress that make the Green New Deal law in 2021. We will make it clear to all politicians that if they want the votes of young people, they need to back the Green New Deal.

This event is hosted by Professor Jennifer Browdy, and co-sponsored by 350MA.org and the Berkshire Environmental Action Team. For more information about the Sunrise movement, visit https://www.sunrisemovement.org.
