Act Out! In Paris [5] - Culture for Climate

Act Out! In Paris [5] - Culture for Climate
Mon, 12/14/2015 - by Eleanor Goldfield
This article originally appeared on Occupy.com

As we mentioned during our Art Not Oil coverage last week, culture dictates politics. And if your culture is vapid, your politics will be, too.

Anais, part of the ArtCOP21 team, explains what that means and why culture is so important in the fight for climate justice.

What remains unknown is whether post-truth Republicans will succeed in 2024 as the Nazis did in 1933.

History shows there are no “one-day” dictatorships. When democracies fall, they typically fall completely.
