Talk: Chuck Collins & Frida Berrigan - Climate Action

Past event
Aug 14, 2023, 7 to 8:30 PM

Join author Chuck Collins in conversation with Frida Berrigan as they explore the ethics and evolution of environmental activism through the lens of his novel, Altar to an Erupting Sun. At Brooks Memorial Library in Brattleboro.

What bold action should we take in the face of ecological destruction and a fossil fuel industry hell-bent on building more extractive infrastructure and delaying action on climate change?

Frida Berrigan is an activist, columnist and author of It Runs in the Family: On Being Raised by Radicals and Growing Into Rebellious Motherhood. She is the daughter of Philip Berrigan and Elizabeth McAlister and niece of Father Daniel Berrigan S.J, prominent activists against the war in Vietnam. Guilford resident Chuck Collins is author of the new novel, Altar to An Erupting Sun, published by our very local Green Writers Press. He is a campaigner and researcher based at the Institute for Policy Studies.
