A case study in "environmental racism" recounts how a toxic-waste disposal facility polarized a small rural town in Mississippi, pitting poor blacks who wanted the plant against two white housewives who led the movement to stop it.
"Sinopsis" puede pertenecer a otra edición de este libro.
Noxubee County, Mississippi was selected as the site for a toxic-waste disposal facility because its people are poor, undereducated, predominantly black and politically powerless. Crawford's vividly written narrative gives a full account of this instance of environmental racism, and the efforts, so far successful, to end it. Photos.
