Environmental Specialists You Missed on Earth Day

Anthony Rogers-Wright

Rogers-Wright has a broad portfolio at Environmental Action (EA).  The group’s Policy and Organizing Director analyzes and develops the environmental policy of, and for, lawmakers, and mobilizes activists to resist racial, ethnic, economic, and gender/gender identity injustice.

But, he is still amazed by the lack of diversity in the mainstream environmental movement. Equally amazing, he says, “is that Big Green still seems to have an obstinate resistance to greater inclusion and sharing of economic resources.”

Boston-based Environmental Action was founded in 1970 on the first Earth Day, “with a mission to protect the planet and all of us who live on it.”

Rogers-Wright received both his MS degree in Community Development, Environmental Science and a BS degree in Environmental Science from Clark University

Follow Rogers-Wright @ARdubbs108, watch him speak about the environment.

The most surprising non-geek thing about Rogers-Wright is that he is a well-known electric bass player who loves greasy, dripping funk.
