Intersectional Environmentalism* and Reciprocity
At MAWR Center, we believe that environmental and social justice are inseparable.
By addressing the root causes of biodiversity loss—such as racialized capitalism, extractive industry and settler colonialism—we empower ourselves to embrace solutions that benefit all living beings.
By fostering empathy for wildlife and understanding the shared stakes of human and ecological well-being, we create opportunities for transformative change.
*Intersectional environmentalism is a term created and defined by Leah Thomas
“When times are easy and there’s plenty to go around, individual species can go it alone. But when conditions are harsh and life is tenuous, it takes a team sworn to reciprocity to keep life going forward. In a world of scarcity, interconnection and mutual aid become critical for survival.”
― Robin Wall Kimmerer, Braiding Sweetgrass
