Green for All & The Dream Reborn: Lifting All Boats in the Green Economy
Green For All is an incredibly important part of the emerging green economy and lifting people out of poverty, the growing movement for “green-collar jobs.”
In April, Green For All is bringing organizations and leaders from communities across the nation together to produce The Dream Reborn, an event aimed at solving two of the world’s most severe crises – global warming and deepening poverty.
This conference will celebrate the life of Dr. King and present positive solutions for social and environmental justice – ecological solutions that can heal the Earth while bringing jobs, justice, wealth and health to all communities.
Among the presenters: Van Jones (Ella Baker Center/Green For All), Majora Carter (Sustainable South Bronx), Winona LaDuke (Honor the Earth), Malia Lazu (The Gathering for Justice), Mary Ann Hitt (Appalachian Voices), Reverend Yearwood (Hip Hop Caucus), Ian Kim (Oakland Green Jobs Corps) and more.
There are several ways to get involved with The Dream Reborn: Register to attend and learn how the green economy will lift all boats. Learn about the event at their website and spread the word. Or sponsor a youth community leader – this is a great way to show your support!
The Dream Reborn is at the Cook Convention Center, Memphis, Tennessee, April 4-6, 2008. Click here for more information.
