KBLA celebrates Black History Month by spotlighting and honoring Black Media Climate Justice Champions whose work and witness, serve as a beacon of light and hope to all of us. Do you know what climate justice is? Most Americans don’t know the term, but a new survey suggests it can be a powerful organizing tool once they learn about it. These honorees are making an impact in the awareness of understanding of climate justice—informing their communities about what it is, who it affects, and what can be done about it. KBLA is pleased to showcase the work of these artists at the Black History Luncheon. Proceeds will benefit BlackCollegeSuccess.org
