ABOUT THE VIDEO
Righteous Jones is a multi-sensory social justice mix series produced by DJ and conceptual artist Run P. that weaves provocative music with thought-provoking soundbites from conversations at the intersection of race, culture, and current events.
This installment of the series entitled Running Out of Time (R.O.OT.) is a collage of voices and visuals that shed light on our closing window of opportunity to come to terms with societal shortcomings concerning climate justice as well as its link to the plight of Black and Indigenous Americans. While discussions continue, members of our community are no longer waiting for conveyor belt solutions. We are taking matters into our own hands to heal the past and ensure our futures.
