 uesday on WBAI.](https://www.wbai.org/program/?program=294)\n​\n\nExtinc
 tion Rebellion Radio is dedicated to covering weekly news and stories on t
 he climate crisis through conversation\, interviews and expert perspective
 s. Our stories focus on our rebellion against the climate crisis with a fo
 cus on the systems that have brought us to crisis and the complexities\, p
 eople\, and nuances that exist within them.\n​\n\nThis show is rooted in
  Extinction Rebellion’s four demands: government must declare a climate 
 and ecological emergency\, government must halt biodiversity loss and redu
 ce greenhouse gas emissions to net zero by 2025\, government must be led b
 y the decisions of a Citizens’ Assembly on climate and ecological justic
 e\, and we must prioritize the most vulnerable people to create a livable 
 planet for all.\n​\n**Hosts:**\n​\nMatthew 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 Sociology. He is the author of The So
 cial Order of Collective Action: The Wisconsin \nUprising of 2011 about th
 e massive protest defending labor rights that pre-figured the Occupy Movem
 ent\, showing how organizing outside of formal structures can produce mass
 ive mobilizations. His writing has appeared in The Progressive and several
  academic journals\, and been translated into German and Chinese. He has t
 aught at Harvard University\, Emerson College\, and the University of Wisc
 onsin-Madison.\n​\n\nAlycee Lane is an activist with XR SFBay and author
  of the award-winning book\, Nonviolence Now! Living the 1963 Birmingham C
 ampaign's Promise of Peace(Lantern Books\, 2015). She is also host and cre
 ator of the Patreon podcast The Wretched of Mother Earth\, where she “de
 colonizes our climate catastrophe.” Her podcast takes its name from her 
 most recent book The Wretched of Mother Earth: The Handbook for Living\, D
 ying\, and Nonviolent Revolution in the Midst of Climate Change Catastroph
 e (2018). In that work\, Alycee argues that “if we hope to save ourselve
 s from climate change catastrophe\, we must face not only the prospect of 
 human extinction\; but also we must radically confront what produced the c
 limate crisis in the first place: the “colonial power matrix” and our 
 deadly attachments to it.”\n​\n\nYou can find her articles on our clim
 ate crisis in Counterpunch\, Truthout\, and Common Dreams magazines. A gra
 duate of Howard University\, Alycee studied English literature and later o
 btained her Doctorate of Philosophy from UCLA\, where she specialized in A
 frican American literature and culture of the civil rights and black power
  movements. From 1995 to 2003\, she served as an Assistant Professor of En
 glish at the University of California\, Santa Barbara\, after which she ob
 tained her Juris Doctor from UC Berkeley (Boalt Hall).
