The climate crisis threatens our lives, and our deepest values. If we want to take back our democracy to tackle this crisis, we need courage. Public Narrative is a storytelling practice to explain why we care, and to share our courage with those around us. It's a key part of organizing, and a powerful tool in the fight for a Green New Deal. Best part-- everyone has the power to use it.

Jeremy has lived in the Boston area almost all of his life. This past year, he deferred from college and took a year to continue a passion:
youth political organizing. He considers the work to be rooted in his family’s history– his grandparents fled religious persecution in Europe. And it’s informed by his home– Watertown, MA; which is made up of people whose parents were born there, people who were born in another country, people who are ready to work with their hands and others who are ready to work with grad school degrees. This past summer, Jeremy adventured around the country. He got the chance to see how kids from Detroit to Eugene to NYC are living, and he got to follow in the footsteps of old poets like Bob Dylan.
