What Is Environmental Racism?

‪#‎EnvironmentalRacism‬

'...1982 In Warren County, North Carolina, protesters of the PCB landfill in Warren County brought national attention to the waste facility and encouraged many African-American churches and civil rights leaders to begin supporting environmental justice..." 

When Environmental hazards, such as lead, chlordane, PCBS, other pesticides and chemicals are allowed to "just be" without remediation in low income areas like Flint, Michigan, it is called Environmental Racism. 

It is time we gave ourselves a reality check.

I was born and raised in Warren County, North Carolina.

The sign on the tree was removed a few days after this photo was taken. I assume the remediation has been completed.   I checked the map and there is no blue dot on the property where the school stands and that is encouraging.
