Beschreibung
In Revolutionary Power, Shalanda Baker arms those made most vulnerable by our current energy system with the tools they need to remake the energy grid in the service of their humanity. She argues that people of color, poor people, and indigenous people must engage in the creation of the new system in order to upend unequal power dynamics. Baker provides a playbook for the energy transformation complete with a step-by-step analysis of the key energy policy areas that are ripe for intervention. She tells the stories of those who are working to be architects of a more just system and draws from her own experience as an energy-justice advocate, a lawyer, and a queer woman of color. Revolutionary Power is the guide to a just energy transformation.
