 esday on WBAI.](https://www.wbai.org/program/?program=294)\n​\n\nExtinct
 ion Rebellion Radio is dedicated to covering weekly news and stories on th
 e climate crisis through conversation\, interviews and expert perspectives
 . Our stories focus on our rebellion against the climate crisis with a foc
 us on the systems that have brought us to crisis and the complexities\, pe
 ople\, and nuances that exist within them.\n​\n\nThis show is rooted in 
 Extinction Rebellion’s four demands: government must declare a climate a
 nd ecological emergency\, government must halt biodiversity loss and reduc
 e greenhouse gas emissions to net zero by 2025\, government must be led by
  the decisions of a Citizens’ Assembly on climate and ecological justice
 \, and we must prioritize the most vulnerable people to create a livable p
 lanet for all.\n​\nThe hosts of Extinction are:\n​\n**Matthew Kearney*
 * is an active member of Extinction Rebellion's Boston chapter and the Nor
 theast Region. His B.A. is in English and his Ph.D. is in Sociology. He is
  the author of The Social Order of Collective Action: The Wisconsin \nUpri
 sing of 2011 about the massive protest defending labor rights that pre-fig
 ured the Occupy Movement\, showing how organizing outside of formal struct
 ures can produce massive mobilizations. His writing has appeared in The Pr
 ogressive and several academic journals\, and been translated into German 
 and Chinese. He has taught at Harvard University\, Emerson College\, and t
 he University of Wisconsin-Madison.\n​\n\n**Alycee Lane** is an activist

 ing the 1963 Birmingham Campaign's Promise of Peace(Lantern Books\, 2015).

 r Earth\, where she “decolonizes our climate catastrophe.” Her podcast
  takes its name from her most recent book The Wretched of Mother Earth: Th
 e Handbook for Living\, Dying\, and Nonviolent Revolution in the Midst of 
 Climate 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 con
 front what produced the climate crisis in the first place: the “colonial
  power matrix” and our deadly attachments to it.”\n​\n\nYou can find
  her articles on our climate crisis in Counterpunch\, Truthout\, and Commo
 n Dreams magazines. A graduate of Howard University\, Alycee studied Engli
 sh literature and later obtained her Doctorate of Philosophy from UCLA\, w
