People often ask me what the environment has to do with poverty and why communities of color are getting so active in the fight against climate change.

Help Grist raise $25,000 by September 30 to further advance our climate reporting

A New Sound communicates both the pain of the old economy and the promise of a new and clean one. It is a moving depiction of why we need an inclusive green economy — one that builds safer streets and cleaner communities. 

It illustrates why we need a vibrant movement for change and opportunity.  It is why we need a new sound.
