Earth Day Special with NAACP Environmental and Climate Justice Director, Jacqueline Patterson

In honor of Earth Day, Emily is sitting down with Jacqueline Patterson, Director of the NAACP Environmental and Climate Justice program who has dedicated her career to fighting for communities most impacted by climate change. Emily talks with Jacqui about how and why climate change disproportionately impacts the communities who contribute to it the least, and what the new Biden-Harris Administration is doing to tackle these issues through an equitable lens. Your Political Playlist brings you weekly unfiltered conversations with inspiring women who are making waves in politics. Host Emily Tisch Sussman brings her decades of experience in politics to her thoughtful conversations with women at the seat of power and activism.
