Amidst global challenges, "A Message From the Future II: The Years of Repair" is an animated short film that dares to envision a radically better future. It portrays 2020 as a historic turning point, where lessons from the Covid-19 pandemic and global anti-racism uprisings drive the creation of a society where everyone is essential and no one is sacrificed.

This sequel to the 2019 Emmy-nominated short film "A Message From the Future" with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, features art by Molly Crabapple and political storytelling by Naomi Klein, Avi Lewis, and Opal Tometi. Narrators include Tometi, Emma Thompson, Gael García Bernal, and Nigerian poet Nnimmo Bassey.

Published on June 18, 2015, by Democracy Now, this report covers Pope Francis's encyclical on the environment and climate change. In the encyclical (available to download here), Pope Francis called for urgent action to protect the planet, urging leaders to hear "the cry of the Earth and the cry of the poor." He emphasized a moral imperative for all to safeguard the environment, advocating for a shift from a "throwaway" consumer culture in rich countries and an end to attitudes that prioritize profit over the common good. A key theme is the disparity between rich and poor, with the Pope noting the vast difference between those in "desperate and degrading poverty" and those with excessive possessions.

The discussion features Naomi Klein, author of "This Changes Everything: Capitalism vs. the Climate," who was invited to speak at the Vatican's "People and Planet First: The Imperative to Change Course" conference. Also joining is Nathan Schneider, a columnist at America magazine, a national Catholic weekly published by the Jesuits.
