FYI - I've worked with Sunrise organizers in the past and they are doing really great stuff IMHO. This looks like it could be a great opportunity for students. Also, might be worth reaching out to see about having organizers as guest speakers in your (remote) classes (which I did in pre-Covid times!). -RMK
---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Luis, Sunrise <[email protected]> Date: Tue, Mar 24, 2020 at 2:58 PM Subject: [AESS_LIST] Student Opportunity under Covid-19 Crisis To: <[email protected]> Hi all, My name is Luis, and I work with Sunrise, a movement of young people fighting to stop the climate crisis and create millions of good jobs in the process. Right now, as this pandemic sweeps our country, thousands of our students are out of school and work, stuck at home. But instead of getting trapped, they’re seizing this moment to become the leaders we need. If you know a student who cares about social justice, the environment, politics, or their community, you'll be interested to learn about our new national program to help students grow their leadership skills and fight for a liveable future. We call it: Sunrise School. Join us at Sunrise School: an online community where we're building the skills we need to confront the crises we currently face. At Sunrise School, students can: - Build connections with other young people who are freaked out about climate change, the coronavirus, and the state of our world. - Learn about the crises gripping our society and how to confront them - Take action together, while still social distancing It's a great way for students to develop an interest in current events and build a habit for civic responsibility that they'll carry with them for a lifetime. Your students can sign up at sunrisemovement.org/sunrise-school Today, we just kicked off our first course - "Green New Deal and Coronavirus: a Crash Course" - with nearly 4,000 participants. Please share this information about Sunrise School. They can sign up at sunrisemovement.org/sunrise-school Feel free to email [email protected] with any questions!
