Community Envisioning of a Sustainable and Just Future
Join the Environment and Change Learning Collaborative for our first gathering of the semester where we will play, work, and dream together about the future that we as a learning community want to strive for. Our work in this gathering will lay the groundwork for future Environment and Change gatherings and events as we identify educational and action goals related to our desire for a more just and sustainable future.

Keep Your Eyes on Their Lies
With just cell phones, whistles, and courage, community members in Minneapolis are organizing support networks and neighborhood watch programs to protect their immigrant neighbors and document and report the violence and abuse enacted by ICE agents against all residents. As the threat of ICE occupation and enforcement spreads to other sanctuary cities nationwide- such as Amherst!- the I/J LC will meet to learn from the inspiring mobilization of citizens to hold their hired government officials accountable. Members of Hampshire's student body, staff, and faculty will also share important local resources to prepare our campus and community from unjust violence, including a Legal Observation training with the National Lawyers Guild (time TBD), ICE Watch training (LUCE), and future bystander training.
