About the book
A part critique, part memoir and practical toolkit, this book reveals how African American, Latino, and Native American communities are engaged with environmental issues and offers strategies and a curriculum for engaging diverse youth as environmental leaders. It addresses cultural divides in mainstream environmentalism, provides resources for connecting organizations working with diverse youth to projects and training, and offers actionable steps for businesses, educators, activists, and policymakers to activate and support youth of color in stewardship roles.
