ENV 321 - Environmental Racism Toward Environmental JusticeThree Credits Every Other Spring
Environmental racism, stemming from discriminatory policies and regulations, is a form of systemic racism where communities of color are disproportionately burdened with hazardous materials generated by society. This course explores structural racism, the environment and how communities of color struggle with hazardous living conditions. We’ll investigate how different communities experience the environment and its benefits, look toward a future that centers environmental justice, and consider how to move our society in a more equitable direction.
Prerequisite(s)/Restriction(s): ENV 200 - Principles of Environmental Science
