There is overwhelming evidence that the impacts of climate change will (and in some cases, already are) disproportionately affecting communities of color, but these groups are not always proactively involved in discussions about how to mitigate its effects. According to a recent Yale study, only 12% of black adults in the United States have heard of climate justice. In this context, Climate Revival was born, a new nonprofit founded by Grammy-nominated singer Antonique Smith and pastor and community activist Rev. Lennox Yearwood, with the goal of educating black religious communities about climate justice and helping to mobilize climate votes.
With Brody's appearance in Nobody Wants This, perhaps we're finally moving away from the notion that a television or film rabbi needs to be anything but. Brody can be sexy; Nef's Rabbi Jen can be impeccably dressed; Rabbi Raquel (who Offenberg-Rose cites as her favorite onscreen rabbi because "she showed that all rabbis are human, even though there's pressure to act like you have all the answers") can be emotionally tortured; You Are So Not Invited to My Bat Mitzvah's Rabbi Rebecca can be goofy; and none of those individual representations have to bear the weight of perfectly representing an entire segment of the Jewish faith. After all, there are so
many different types of rabbis in real life people who marry LGBTQ+ couples, teach Torah in sneakers, and protest Israel's war in Gaza so why isn't that diversity reflected on screen?

Photo: Courtesy of Climate Revival This week, Climate Revival received support from special guest Leslie Odom Jr. as it announced an eight-city gospel concert tour to encourage Black congregations to raise awareness about the dangers of climate change while visiting the polls. The tour is scheduled to kick off in St. James, Louisiana, also known as Cancer Alley, a predominantly Black community that has a 95% higher risk of cancer than most places in the United States due to its more than 200 petrochemical operations.
