In this episode I sit down with Dr. Norie Singer and we discuss why nationally and historically, communities with high proportions of low-income people and people of color tend to attract the "siting" of environmental hazards (factories, incinerators, mining operations, nuclear waste storage, etc.), and not the other way around. Here is a list of some of the non-profits that were mentioned in our episode. Michigan Environmental Justice Coalition Michigan Environmental Council Michigan Sierra Club Michigan United We the People of Detroit The Greening of Detroit Detroiters for Environmental Justice D-Town Farm Keep Detroit Growing Environmental Transformation Movement of Flint 350.org (http://350.org/) The Ezekiel Project, Saginaw.
