EA 086 SC - Environmental Justice

There growing movements in the United States and around the world which contend that environmental harm is distributed in a manner that is unjust and both racist and classist. What does this mean and how do we adjudicate such claims? This course will critically examine Environmental Justice (EJ) movements in the United States and in global contexts: their history, central claims, frameworks and methods for analyzing race, class and the environment, EJ campaigns, and on-going strategies.
