Blue Cactus Press Studio

Have you felt utterly hopeless watching our planet be burned alive and whole communities become displaced by the environmental-related consequences of racial capitalism? We see your despair, your anger, your grief, and we’re sorry it feels like your world is ending. But yours is not the first world to end, nor will it be the last.

  • Join writer, artist, and climate organizer Nadine Shaw-Nabass in this workshop to learn about communities who have survived the end of the world & the important role radical hope plays in building another one.
  • In this workshop, we will learn to see hope as more than just a passive feeling, but a radical action that can mitigate local impacts of climate change in our communities.
  • Every day it feels like there is less time for imagination– we are kept too busy to dream and too tired to play. We spend so much time angry and scared over injustice, but if we are not also imagining and dreaming of something better, what is it all for? Practice flexing your imagination during this workshop and reflect on what could happen if we all planted trees after the end of the world.
