b"Join Arundhati Roy and Naomi Klein in a conversation moderated by Asad Rehman on how we move from crisis to justice and build a Global Green New Deal!\\n\\nWe knew our system was broken. But the Covid-19 pandemic has reinforced the cruelty of the global economy, and deepened the visceral injustices of our societies.\\n\\nBefore the virus stuck, the effect of climate catastrophe and obscene inequality meant that millions were already living in multiple crises.\\n\\nNow, as the pandemic wreaks an untold impact, we know that it is those who are most vulnerable\\u2014whether from their inability to access healthcare, or because of their economic precarity\\u2014who bear the heaviest burden. In times of crisis, it is always the poorest, the most oppressed, and those under occupation, who are most affected.\\n \\nOur only recourse is to amplify the calls for justice ringing from every corner of the globe. The time to build the future we deserve is now, and international solidarity is the tool we need to begin its construction.\\n\\nYou can get involved by joining and supporting each of this event's sponsoring organizations. \\nThe Global Green New Deal: http://globalgnd.org/\\nThe Leap: https://theleap.org/\\nWar on Want: https://waronwant.org/\\nHaymarket Books: https://www.haymarketbooks.org\\n\\nCheck out Naomi Klein's latest book, On Fire: https://bookshop.org/a/1039/9781982129910\\nRead Arundhati Roy's 'The Pandemic is a Portal': https://www.ft.com/content/10d8f5e8-74eb-11ea-95fe-fcd274e920ca\\n\\nPre-order Arundhati Roy's Azadi: https://bookshop.org/a/1039/9781642592603\\n\\nWatch the live event recording: https://youtu.be/w0NY1_73mHY\\n\\nBuy books from Haymarket: www.haymarketbooks.org\\n\\nFollow us on Soundcloud: soundcloud.com/haymarketbooks"
