- Society & Culture
This podcast is meant to create a space to talk about community-oriented climate justice. As students at the University of Oregon, we are constantly surrounded by passionate activism and rich academic research. Our goal is to serve as a platform for different people and organizations that are doing climate justice work. We are interested in giving a voice to perspectives that aren’t always foregrounded by interviewing people of all demographics. Although the podcast is based out of the Eugene community, we address topics that are widely relevant. We hope to provide knowledge that can be a jumping off point for action. We believe in the importance of remaining inquisitive and thinking critically about societal habits and our own perspectives.

Charges of domestic terrorism for sitting in trees, a pacifist being murdered and then accused of firing first, and at the heart of the conflict, a $90 million dollar military-style police training facility called cop city.

Disclaimer: In our frantic rush to get this timely episode out before the big, movement-building rally on May 6th, we created a product that is a little bit sloppier than our usual output. We'd like to specifically apologize to Teddy, who we called "Mickey" for some reason during the credit sequence, and we also apologize for volume, quality, and compression inconsistencies, and all other ways in which this episode is a little rough around the edges. Thanks for bearing with us, and for caring enough about the Urban Farm to listen through this. Solidarity forever. -CJL
