:** [Listen to Extinction Rebellion Radio - 2:30 pm every Friday on WBAI.
](https://wbai.org/program.php?program=294)\n\n\nExtinction Rebellion Radi
o is dedicated to covering weekly news and stories on the climate crisis t
hrough conversation\, interviews and expert perspectives. Our stories focu
s on our rebellion against the climate crisis with a focus on the systems
that have brought us to crisis and the complexities\, people\, 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 emerge
ncy\, government must halt biodiversity loss and reduce greenhouse gas emi
ssions to net zero by 2025\, government must be led by the decisions of a
Citizens’ Assembly on climate and ecological justice\, and we must prior
itize the most vulnerable people to create a livable planet for all.\n\n\n

t Region. His B.A. is in English and his Ph.D. is in Sociology. He is the
author of The Social Order of Collective Action: The Wisconsin \nUprising
of 2011 about the massive protest defending labor rights that pre-figured
the Occupy Movement\, showing how organizing outside of formal structures
can produce massive mobilizations. His writing has appeared in The Progres
sive and several academic journals\, and been translated into German and C
hinese. He has taught at Harvard University\, Emerson College\, and the Un
iversity of Wisconsin-Madison.\n\n\n**Alycee Lane** is an activist with XR

1963 Birmingham Campaign's Promise of Peace(Lantern Books\, 2015). She is
also host and creator of the Patreon podcast The Wretched of Mother Earth\
, where she “decolonizes our climate catastrophe.” Her podcast takes i
ts name from her most recent book The Wretched of Mother Earth: The Handbo
ok for Living\, Dying\, and Nonviolent Revolution in the Midst of Climate
Change Catastrophe (2018). In that work\, Alycee argues that “if we hope
to save ourselves from climate change catastrophe\, we must face not only
the prospect of human extinction\; but also we must radically confront wh
at produced the climate crisis in the first place: the “colonial power m
atrix” and our deadly attachments to it.”\n\n\nYou can find her articl
es on our climate crisis in Counterpunch\, Truthout\, and Common Dreams ma
gazines. A graduate of Howard University\, Alycee studied English literatu
re and later obtained her Doctorate of Philosophy from UCLA\, where she sp

nd black power movements. From 1995 to 2003\, she served as an Assistant P
rofessor of English at the University of California\, Santa Barbara\, afte
r which she obtained her Juris Doctor from UC Berkeley (Boalt Hall).\n\n-:
