[February 15 Webinar]([link removed])
Dear John,
February is Black History Month in the U.S., and despite major social justice wins over the last few decades, systemic racial and class injustices unfortunately continue to impact the lives of historically underserved groups. The serious consequences are clear: In the U.S., low-income, rural, Black, Indigenous, and People of Color are disproportionately subject to and harmed by polluted air, waters, and soils from industrial infrastructure and activities.
Join us on February 15 for our webinar From the Frontline: Petrochemicals, Plastics, and Cancer Alley. During this event, hear from frontline activists from communities of color across America’s industrial plastic and petrochemical corridors, who will discuss how they are taking action to protect themselves and their neighbors from pollution and injustice—and how you can, too.
Our panelists for this important conversation include “[The Father of Environmental Justice]([link removed])” Dr. Robert Bullard; [RISE St. James Louisiana]([link removed]) Executive Assistant Shamyra Lavigne; and Founder & CEO of [Hip Hop Caucus]([link removed]), Reverend Lennox Yearwood. The conversation will be moderated by Plastic Pollution Coalition Communications Manager, Erica Cirino, author of [Thicker Than Water: The Quest for Solutions to the Plastic
Crisis]([link removed]).
This webinar will feature live Spanish translation curiosity of Alejandra Warren, Co-Founder & Executive Director, [Plastic Free Future]([link removed]).
