4. Intersectionality And Climate Migration with Shanthuru Premkumar
<p>In our fourth episode, we’re talking intersectionality. </p><br><p>Climate change isn't an equaliser; people who are part of marginalised communities experience its effects much more harshly, despite being the least responsible for it. My fourth guest is Shanthuru Premkumar, a non-binary Black Indigenous refugee from Sri Lanka. Shanthuru is a dedicated human rights activist and catalyst for transformative change. Their mission centres on addressing deeply ingrained systemic oppressions faced by the global majority.</p><br><p>Natural diversity, including queerness, should be accepted and celebrated. Yet, environmental catastrophes often hit marginalised communities the hardest, leading to disproportionate migration and displacement. In this episode, we will discuss how we can create a world where systemic oppression and conflict are not the norm, and where we strive for equitable, sustainable solutions for everyone.</p><br><p>Shanthuru works at Greenpeace, currently with Greenpeace Belgium. They formerly worked for Greenpeace International as the Global Equity, Inclusion, Diversity, and Engagement Coordinator. At present, they serve as the Justice, Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and Safety Officer, as well as a Programme Advisor for Greenpeace Belgium, integrating these principles within the organisation's framework.</p><br><p>They tirelessly strive to create a more equitable world by amplifying the voices of marginalised communities, campaigning for decolonisation, and championing climate justice initiatives.</p><br><p>Find Shanthuru and their work on:</p><p><a href="https://www.greenpeace.org/international/story/60078/impact-climate-crisis-lgbtqia2s-pride-month/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The disproportionate impact of climate crisis on the LGBTQIA2S+ community (blog)</a></p><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/shanthuruprem/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a>, <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/shanthuru/?originalSubdomain=be" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">LinkedIn</a>, <a href="https://x.com/shanthurup?lang=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">X</a></p><br><p>Follow Roots & Routes on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/rootsroutespod/followers/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a>!</p><br><p>Intro sound credits:</p><p>Pride 2024: We Show Up Legacies / Human Rights Campaign / YouTube</p><p>Kimberle Crenshaw on Intersectionality | The Big Idea / YouTube</p><p>Who is most affected by climate change and who should tackle it? - BBC News / YouTube</p><p>Climate Justice And Human Rights Explained / Amnesty International / YouTube</p><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
