ES 306 - Environmental Justice


An examination of environmental justice as a movement of resistance to the environmental risks experienced by economically and politically marginalized communities.  Students consider the ways systemic inequalities, driven by race/ethnicity, class, or gender, lead to disproportionate environmental and health risks, and how communities respond to them.
