Memphis vs Musk with Rep. Justin J. Pearson, 2025
Podcast
 
This episode from A People’s Climate centers the Memphis community’s fight against Elon Musk’s x AI data centers, which threaten local air quality, water, and environmental protections. Hosted by Shilpi Chhotray and executively produced by Mindy Ramaker, the podcast reframes climate conversation through environmental justice, foregrounding frontline communities, grassroots leadership, and people-powered solutions rather than corporate greenwashing or top-down fixes. By amplifying the voices of organizers and movement leaders, the work shows how collective action can challenge entrenched systems and build more just climate futures from the ground up.
