Influencers like writer Bill McKibben have taken on the promotion of the renewable energy sector with a “let's consume our way out of the crisis” approach. But in the not too distant past, we saw a U.S. climate movement that waged fierce direct action campaigns at mountaintop removal coal mine sites in southern West Virginia, in the woods of East Texas against the Keystone XL pipeline and at Standing Rock against the Dakota Access Pipeline, pressured Wall Street banks to stop funding fossil fuels, put hundreds of thousands in the streets of New York and Washington D.C. and joined an international chorus of grassroots and Indigenous voices at the annual United Nations COP meetings. This all begs the question, where has the U.S. climate movement gone?In our latest, we talk with Prof. Kai Bosworth (@kaibosworth) about his new essay on the state of the U.S. climate movement, its past and future prospects.

Even more importantly, we've seen an increase in state violence carried out by federal law enforcement, most notably ICE, that includes the murder of a number of people including U.S. citizens Renee' Good and Alex Pretti. Now as are heading into another election, the potential for more "violent populism" is growing.In our latest, we talk with Prof. Thomas Zeitzoff (@zeitzoff.bsky.social) about state, elite and vigilante political violence in this election season.Bio// Professor Thomas Zeitzoff is in the School of Public Affairs at American University.
