 n-radio0223/\n\nAfter a brief hiatus over the new year\, Extinction Rebell
 ion Radio is back! Listen at the new time slot - 630pm every Tuesday! You 
 can [tune in here](https://www.wbai.org/listen-live/).\n\nExtinction Rebel
 lion Radio is dedicated to covering weekly news and stories on the climate
  crisis through conversation\, interviews and expert perspectives. Our sto
 ries focus on our rebellion against the climate crisis with a focus on the
  systems that have brought us to crisis and the complexities\, people\, an
 d nuances that exist within them.\n\nThis show is rooted in Extinction Reb
 ellion’s four demands: government must declare a climate and ecological 
 emergency\, government must halt biodiversity loss and reduce greenhouse g
 as 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 planet for all.

 Ph.D. is in Sociology. He is the author of The Social Order of Collective 
 Action: The Wisconsin Uprising of 2011about the massive protest defending

 .” Her podcast takes its name from her most recent book The Wretched of 
 Mother Earth: The Handbook for Living\, Dying\, and Nonviolent Revolution 
 in the Midst of Climate Change Catastrophe (2018). In that work\, Alycee a
 rgues that “if we hope to save ourselves from climate change catastrophe
 \, we must face not only the prospect of human extinction\; but also we mu
 st radically confront what produced the climate crisis in the first place:
  the “colonial power matrix” and our deadly attachments to it.” You
