QUEERS4
CLIMATE
FOR A LOUD & PROUD QUEER PRESENCE AT THE CLIMATE STRIKE!
We are Queers4Climate NL –
LGBTQIA* folks in the Netherlands who stand against climate breakdown and self-organize for a liveable planet for our communities and species of all kinds.
This is for two reasons:
First, because
LGBTQIA* RIGHTS, FREEDOM AND EQUALITY WILL BE EVEN HARDER TO DEFEND ON A BROKEN PLANET.
We are aware that around the world, the poorest and most marginalised people have been and are impacted by the climate crisis first and hardest. Black, brown and indigenous LGBTQIA* folks at the frontlines of climate-related disasters, conflicts and displacement face more hardships and discrimination than anyone else.
Second, because
WE SHARE THE SENSE
OF URGENCY OF MANY OTHERS FIGHTING FOR
CLIMATE JUSTICE.
Queer people in the Netherlands have different relationships and histories with the reality of this struggle. We are aware that our struggles are connected, and our survival depends on our solidarity.
We are united in our fight against all systems of oppression perpetrated by the policies of companies and states that destroy communities and cultures and the planet.
We need to stand for each other across all (state) borders and (gender) boundaries. Kinship is key. No one is free until we are all free!
