** 2 Special Series on Environmental Justice with Guest Editor Ray Foxworth
------------------------------------------------------------
One of the newer ways of working we instituted in 2020 was in publishing collaboratively with various networks of grassroots leaders. We were pleased to connect with the First Nations Development Institute ([link removed][UNIQID]) to produce two sets of articles about Native American perspectives on environmental justice. We expect to use this model more often in the future as we integrate the expertise of grounded leaders into our pages.
We are deeply grateful to Ray Foxworth, Vice President at First Nations who acted as guest editor on these series, finding the topics, and authors and helping to fine tune every point.
The spring series lifted up Native American voices to highlight issues concerning environmental justice in Indian Country and identify some steps that philanthropy might take to support this critical frontline community work. The fall series took an even deeper dive, uncovering the racism that has often erased Native voices in the name, ironically, of environmental preservation. As Raymond Foxworth writes, the work aims to “bring Native leaders working for environmental justice in their communities into the conversation, to speak for themselves and discuss how they are mobilizing to stop environmental degradation and racism and build more sustainable futures for their communities and beyond.”
