White Environmentalism Towards Grassroots Environmental Justice
Manage episode 362931817 series 2882904
Lawrence and Rasheem discuss the intersection of environmentalism and racism in the United States. They explore the ways in which environmental racism has become a key focus of anti-racist discourse and organizing, drawing on the influential book "Dumping in Dixie" by Robert Bullard.
Through a critical analysis of legal strategies and grassroots organizing, they offer insights into the dangers of "professionalizing" social movements and discuss the importance of rejecting false dichotomies between economic growth and environmental protection. Above all, they center Black community self-determination as the key to a truly just and sustainable future.
