Lindsey Dillon: Toxic City, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

"Thinking about questions of imperialism and militarism, Lindsey Dillon illuminates the importance--nationally and internationally--of environmental justice and the work on reparations."--Nicole Fabricant, author of Fighting to Breathe: Race, Toxicity, and the Rise of Youth Activism in Baltimore

"In analyzing how the Bayview-Hunters Point community became a site of environmental vulnerability, Toxic City provides an important history that has been neglected within studies of California and the Bay Area."--Juan De Lara, author of Inland Shift: Race, Space, and Capital in Southern California
"Incisive, devastating, and inspiring all at once, Dillon's Toxic City sets a new bar for environmental justice scholarship. This richly textured and engagingly narrated account reveals the tenacity of the residents and community organizers trying to make a better world even as the state has abandoned places and workers deemed essential in wartime as well as in times of 'green' urban redevelopment."--Jill Lindsey Harrison, author of From the Inside Out: The Fight for Environmental Justice within Government Agencies and Pesticide Drift and the Pursuit of Environmental Justice
