Environmental Justice

Tony Arnold, environmental justice law professor at Brandeis, describes environmental justice and tells stories from his 30 years of work. On Oct 16 at adult ed, hear his insights on how we can respond to injustices with God’s radically transformative love.

In his class, Environmental Justice and God’s Radically Transformative Love, you will hear stories that have emerged out of an understanding of what it means to be radically transformed by God’s love in ways that reshape our thinking and actions about both the environment and social and racial justice. Learn how we can challenge and transform both environmental stewardship and social justice; how we can create opportunities for miracles; how we can become community with people who are marginalized and oppressed; and how we can be partners in God’s radically transformative love.

Join us for Adult Ed, October 16, at 8:30am (MT) either in person in the McFarland Chapel or on Zoom. This class is part of our series on The Radical Christian Alternative, and opens a four-part set of classes focusing on environmental issues.

Professor Arnold directs the interdisciplinary Resilience Justice Project at the University of Louisville, which seeks to address the unequal vulnerabilities of marginalized and oppressed communities to shocks, such as climate change, disasters, and gentrification.
