Every Tuesday throughout the month of October, Bevier Cafe will host a speaker to present on a sustainability-related topic. The first five attendees will receive free lunch! Otherwise, optional lunch costs approximately $10.  Food will be served beginning at 11:30, and the presentation will begin at noon. 

Dr. McKenzie Johnson – “So you say I’m a socialist? Thinking about integrating justice and sustainability in a Trumpian world.” In the contemporary United States, “you’re a socialist” is a common critique lodged against anyone advocating for just sustainability. McKenzie Johnson will talk about why this “critique” misses the mark and the numerous paradoxes that environmental justice advocates face in fighting for justice in an inequitable world.
