DescriptionStudents from Wilson Middle School stand behind a teacher, Michelle Freeman, as she speaks to a television journalist during a climate protest at Robinson Park in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The students and teacher are wearing dark blue shirts and many of the students are holding hand-drawn posters with messages about saving the Earth. The posters read, "Our planet is dying"; "This is our 1 and only planet"; "We are missing lessong so we can teach you one"; "Denial is not a policy"; "If not now, When? #ClimateStrike #FridaysforFuture"; "Panice like your house is on fire, because it is"; and "We are killing ourselves, now or never!" Other climate strike protestors are in the background. A camerawoman stands with a video camera pointed toward Freeman and the students.
