Climate activists need to come together to build connection, community and movements - aims and principles can come later.

'Once you’ve heard the truth, you are accountable.'

The climate activist movements that follow Extinction Rebellion and Just Stop Oil must face complex questions of power, decision making and culture head on.

'It's time to assemble. History isn’t waiting. And neither should we.'

'If I am going to carry on writing for The Ecologist I need at least 100 of you to commit several hours of your time to running a mini-assembly.'

'When I get out of this place (prison, that is), I’ll be straight on the road, speaking to people around the country. I might call it The Fanatic Tour.'

How do we manage democracy within our movements?

State oppression will not stop climate activism, but will instead ensure climate breakdown leads to revolution.

Extinction Rebellion won't happen again. But the movement built a foundation that a new revolutionary movement can usefully deploy.

Extinction Rebellion exploded onto the climate scene with a news article in The Ecologist. Five years later, the founders review its presentation of the science.

'We must do the hard work of building racial justice into the DNA of our movement.'
