In this 33-minute episode, Lauren Jabusch of the California Student Sustainability Coalition (CSSC) discusses the increasingly important influence and financial impact that divestment is having within the public school system.
Lauren starts with CSSC's origins as well as the massive reach of the Golden State's public university system and its multi-billion dollar pension schemes, then moves on to the evolution of issues (min. 6) and the engagement with local communities (min. 9).
She then continues with the subtleties of each issue and winning over hearts and minds (min. 12), the dual use of facts and storytelling and California's broader influence of divestment in the U.S. and abroad (min. 20).
Lauren closes it up with keeping a student-run movement going and her favorite places in California.
Feed your soul. Keep listening.
