SUMMARY:Environmental Justice and Just Sustainability in Harlem and Beyond
DESCRIPTION:Please register for this event here.\nStudies show that black a
 nd brown Americans are exposed to 56% and 63% (respectively) more pollutio
 n than they produce. Conversely\, white Americans are exposed to 17% less 
 pollution than they produce. Are sustainability measures doing enough to r
 edress such racial disparities? Using Harlem as a starting point\, we expl
 ore the historic and contemporary reasons that communities of color bear t
 he brunt of environmental risks\, and we examine the unintended consequenc
 es of sustainability for environmental justice struggles. Looking forward\
 , we also discuss new possibilities and paradigms for redressing environme
 ntal and climate-related inequalities in Harlem\, in New York City\, and a
 cross the country.\n\nSpeakers:\n\nMelissa Checker Hagedorn\, Professor of
  Urban Studies at Queens College\, Associate Professor of Anthropology and
  Environmental Psychology at the CUNY Graduate Center\n\nPeggy Shepard\, C
