 r a brief hiatus over the new year\, Extinction Rebellion Radio is back! L
 isten at the new time slot - 630pm every Tuesday! You can [tune in here](h
 ttps://www.wbai.org/listen-live/).\n\nExtinction Rebellion Radio is dedica
 ted to covering weekly news and stories on the climate crisis through conv
 ersation\, interviews and expert perspectives. Our stories focus on our re
 bellion against the climate crisis with a focus on the systems that have b
 rought us to crisis and the complexities\, people\, and nuances that exist
  within them.\n\nThis show is rooted in Extinction Rebellion’s four dema
 nds: government must declare a climate and ecological emergency\, governme
 nt must halt biodiversity loss and reduce greenhouse gas emissions to net 
 zero by 2025\, government must be led by the decisions of a Citizens’ As
 sembly on climate and ecological justice\, and we must prioritize the most
  vulnerable people to create a livable planet for all.\n\nHosts:\n\nMatthe
 w Kearney is an active member of Extinction Rebellion's Boston chapter and
  the Northeast Region. His B.A. is in English and his Ph.D. is in Sociolog
 y. He is the author of The Social Order of Collective Action: The Wisconsi
 n Uprising of 2011about the massive protest defending labor rights that pr
 e-figured the Occupy Movement\, showing how organizing outside of formal s
 tructures can produce massive mobilizations. His writing has appeared in T
 he Progressive and several academic journals\, and been translated into Ge
 rman and Chinese. He has taught at Harvard University\, Emerson College\, 
 and the University of Wisconsin-Madison.\n\nAlycee Lane is an activist wit
 h XR SFBay and author of the award-winning book\, Nonviolence Now! Living 
 the 1963 Birmingham Campaign's Promise of Peace(Lantern Books\, 2015). She
  is also host and creator of the Patreon podcast The Wretched of Mother Ea
 rth\, where she “decolonizes our climate catastrophe.” Her podcast tak
 es its name from her most recent book The Wretched of Mother Earth: The Ha
 ndbook for Living\, Dying\, and Nonviolent Revolution in the Midst of Clim
 ate Change Catastrophe (2018). In that work\, Alycee argues that “if we 
 hope to save ourselves from climate change catastrophe\, we must face not 
 only the prospect of human extinction\; but also we must radically confron
 t what produced the climate crisis in the first place: the “colonial pow
 er matrix” and our deadly attachments to it.” You can find her article
 s on our climate crisis in Counterpunch\, Truthout\, and Common Dreams mag
 azines. A graduate of Howard University\, Alycee studied English literatur
 e and later obtained her Doctorate of Philosophy from UCLA\, where she spe
 cialized in African American literature and culture of the civil rights an
 d black power movements. From 1995 to 2003\, she served as an Assistant Pr
 ofessor of English at the University of California\, Santa Barbara\, after
  which she obtained her Juris Doctor from UC Berkeley (Boalt Hall).\n\n[Ra
