Grief, Racism, and the Climate Crisis (w/ Mary Annaïse Heglar)

Mary Annaïse Heglar is back on the show to discuss her new book "Troubled Waters", a fictional account of a young Black woman in Mississippi that uses direct action against the fossil fuel industry as a healing mechanism for her own grief, while also learning about the grief and trauma that her own grandmother carries with her from her days at the center of the Civil Rights movement. Mary Annaïse Heglar is one of the great essayists and writers about the climate crisis, climate grief, and climate justice.
