What is Environmental Racism? -Research


This clip shows Professor Danny Faber from the Northeastern Environmental Justice Research Collaborative in Boston. He defines what environmental racism is and how it is portrayed to more politically powerful counties/ states. In my opinion Environmental Racism is unethical -- for people to create an atmosphere of victimization to these sufferers are also in my opinion wrong and I have a very strong view towards that.





Research on Environmental Racism in New Orleans: Hurricane Katrina


This video shows how New Orleans was effected by Hurricane Katrina, it tries to pin point the unethical way that the people of New Orleans have been treated and that the Government did not do everything to help them. It was posted in 2008 and there are no comments allowed to be on this clip. In my opinion it is terribly sad how those poor people suffered as a result of freak weather in America.

Freak Water Weather Research...

Here are some videos that I have found to do with freak water weather. It is to do with systems and how the government is either trying to help the society or how the government is not doing enough. These videos show devastating footage of the destruction that hurricanes, tsunami's and many more freak weather activities have done to this world, and my main focus is looking at how politicians try and make the situation better or worse in some cases.

Newspaper Article...

I chose this newspaper article because I thought it was really bad how none of the schools in my area would allow a 12 year old boy to join their school. His parents had found jobs around my area and had decided to move from West Sussex to enable them to be closer to their jobs. Unbeknown to them their son was not going to be able to join any school because all the places had been filled. We discussed this in class and spoke about how bad it is since parents pay tax for children to be able to go to school. In my opinion I think it is diabolical.
