Extinction Rebellion Fashion Action with Clare Richardson

Clare Richardson from Extinction Rebellion Fashion Action (XR Fashion Action) shares why she became a fashion activist, how fashion is often overlooked in the broader climate crisis conversation and why Extinction Rebellion chose to focus on clothing, the apparel industry's inextricable ties to colonialism, what it means to be "anti-fashion," and what people can do to help make positive change. XR Fashion Action is a decentralized activist group pushing for radical system change within the fashion industry. XR Fashion Action is a sister organization to Extinction Rebellion and uses non-violent civil disobedience to bring about a transition to a fashion model that does not rely on the exploitation of people and the planet.
