Confronting Environmental Racism: Voices From The Grassroots

CONFRONTING ENVIRONMENTAL RACISM: VOICES FROM THE GRASSROOTS

Environmental Racism

ABSTRACT

The connection between racism and environmental quality is increasingly visible. People of color in urban and rural areas are the most likely victims of industrial dumping, toxic landfills, uranium mining, and dangerous waste incinerators. This groundbreaking anthology grows out of the National People of Color Environmental Leadership Summit and brings together leading scholars, environmental leaders, and social justice activists of the emerging environmental justice movement.

People of color in urban and rural areas are the most likely victims of industrial dumping, toxic landfills, uranium mining and dangerous waste incinerators. Anthology brings together the leaders of the emerging environmental justice movement.

Environmental racism is racial discrimination in environmental policyrnaking. It is racial discrimination in the enforcement of regulations and laws. It is racial discrimination in the deliberate targeting of communities of color for toxic waste disposal and the siting of polluting industries. It is racial discrimination in the official sanctioning of the life-threatening presence of poisons and pollutants in communities of color. And, it is racial discrimination in the history of excluding people of color from the mainstream environmental groups, decisionmaking boards, commissions, and regulatory bodies.
