Environmental Racism
The concept of environmental racism is a relatively new one. But that it exists is as certain as other forms of what might be called traditional racism. There is an increasing pattern of placing toxic waste dumps, hazardous materials and landfills in African American, Latino and Native American communities. If convenient sites can’t be found in the United States, there is always the South Pacific or other parts of the Third World.
