A Circle by the River

Line Break Media and 100PercentMN, a coalition of organizations working for a just and fossil-free future for Minnesota, produced this lovely 5-minute video based on the words of Ricardo Levins Morale’s words, with animated artwork, as part of a “Climate Visionaries” series in 2022.

They gave us permission to share it as part of our Values & Vision theme.

As we need those downstream from here.

As an anchor point in the future.

Someone to dream about.

To fight for.

To walk toward.

Let’s go.
