Black. Brown. Green. is a web portal of resources and information that integrate people of color and our needs and issues with the movement for environmental sustainability. It's also a place for people of color to learn about green living and develop an understanding of how issues of social justice and environmental sustainability are interlinked not only in the political world, but in our daily lives. Black. Brown. Green. is solution oriented. We hope to spread the understanding that all things are connected and that we are stronger when working together than we are when we are tearing each other apart.
BBG provides a cache of articles and videos that address the interconnectedness of green and social issues. Learn how deeply entwined we are with the fate of the planet. Learn why issues remain segregated even after we've fought long and hard for equality. Educate yourself and others about the heritage and current situations of people of color around the world. Debate hot topics. Expand the definitions of green.
BBG's e-newsletter helps you to stay up to date on the issues and policies that affect your daily lives. We also connect you with the many resources that provide excellent news coverage of the things you need and want to know, and the people and places who are working towards a socially just, green world. We don't want to re-create the wheel, we want to get your wheels in motion.
Get Your Green On.
BBG gives you practical day-to-day ways to live a green life. Many people of color choose to live in an environmentally sustainable way because we know first-hand the damage that oppression can do to any being, including our planet. You can share your ideas, tips with a community of people who are committed to living a BBG lifestyle.
The BBG philosophy combines the principles of permaculture and non-violent social change into a clear blueprint for how to create a world that sustains us all.
Our heritage page tells the stories from people of color who have come before us and valued sustainability long before the modern popular green trends. Have we forgotten that green living is in our blood? BBG helps all of us remember.
BBG's social network board offers an interactive community where you can talk to other people using the site to ask and answer, challenge and grow, learn and teach. Our e-newsletter gives you updates from BBG about issues, events, people, and lifestyle tips. All races are welcome at BBG because we understand the effects of segmenting issues and communities. We hope to bring groups together under a model that sustains us all.
...and much more.
You are invited to make BBG a home
for the issues that impact your daily realities and the future of our populations on the earth,
in society and as a global community.
