QuakerSpeak, January 2020

Have you seen the one we made in collaboration with Quaker Earthcare Witness? Four Friends speak to the unprecedented crises Earth is facing and what Quakers are doing about it.

 

“Quakers have traditionally valued peace and justice, and that has been our public witness in the world. . . . I see the environmental crises that we’re facing as not being separate from that but as completely intertwined with peace and justice issues. Everything that we’re seeing and experiencing in terms of ecological problems has a direct link to environmental justice.”

—Shelley Tanenbaum, general secretary of Quaker Earthcare Witness and member of Strawberry Creek Meeting in Berkley, Calif.
