All the issues are interrelated. Many of us come from the women's movement, gay rights, labor, environmental racism, and social justice movements. We are environmentalists in that we believe our continuing existence as a species depends on a safe work place, a healthy community, and a clean environment. Many people of color have registered Green. The Green movement grew out of the environmental movement, which has been traditionally white.
Movements have to start somewhere.
Some start with workers, some with women or youth. We are working with all of the above, as well as the environmental justice movements. We recognize that there will be no social justice until people of color gain genuine political power, and this is reflected in our selection of candidates. We are especially sensitive towards Native Americans, both for the reverence with which their culture regards the earth, and for the onslaught they have suffered in the name of business as usual. We are very different from the Democrats.
