.@algore and @risestjames will be joined by religious leaders and fellow ecojustice advocates for an information fair and revival service in the heart of Cancer Alley—where corporations continue an ecological assault on Black communities along the Mississippi River in Acadiana.
Black Catholic activist Sharon Lavigne and RISE St. James will host "Cancer Alley United" this week in Louisiana, championing the ongoing regional fight against carcinogenic chemical pollution.
Former vice president Al Gore is among the featured speakers. blackcatholicmessenger.org/c…

On December 5, I’ll talk more about this idea – called pluralism – at our third annual @ObamaFoundation Democracy Forum. Learn more at obama.org/2024-democracy-for…

Don’t let your work for God overshadow your walk with God. ✨ In the busyness of service, remember to pause and nurture your relationship with Him. 🙏 It’s in those quiet moments of connection that our purpose is renewed and our hearts are filled. ❤️

Gov. Landry uses a restaurant analogy in this piece and says people don't want to know where the ingredients come from or how it was made..... I'm pretty sure people do want to know what's in their food, just like they want to know what their government is up to.
My story today at noon on the bill that would decimate public records access in Louisiana.
Governor Landry questioned if taxpayers have the right to see records on how government decisions are made.

What a great day!
Heading to @EPA announcement @HowardU
Thank you @EPAMichaelRegan 🙏🏾
So proud to represent @BloombergDotOrg who has worked to block nearly 30% of new gas capacity since 2020 and helped secure the retirement of over 70% of U.S. coal plants over the last decade!
EPA has announced a suite of final rules to reduce pollution from fossil fuel-fired power plants - taking action to protect public health, tackle climate change, and cut pollution in our air, water, and in our neighborhoods.

Reduce emissions of carbon pollution; ensure cleaner water for communities; reduce health risks from mercury and other air toxics; clean up coal ash contamination.” EPA logo in bottom center.
