Parents For A Future
Suppose we all made this year the one where we choose to make a difference? We could take a sabbatical and join in the actions around COP26.

Raw Courage
In the midst of nonviolent direct action, is a red thread, holding the liminal space between the old and the new, between action and re-action, between hope and extinction. The Red Rebel Brigade is a distinctive feature of XR Actions and here we have a glimpse from the inside.
