Mikaela talks to Leah Thomas (@greengirlleah) and Marie Beecham (@wastefreemarie) about how the huge influx of followers following the #BlackLivesMatter movement finally being given the attention it deserves feels being black women in the environmentalism space on instagram. We talk about tokenism, intersectionality, accountability, racial trauma, black joy and more.
