1.) The migrants were forced to work in the shipyards in unsanitary working conditions as well as being forced to live in those same conditions. The white's forced migrants to work for them, which was a big cause for the environment to be so polluted. After forcing them to work they were also pushed out of the nicer neighborhoods and forced to live in the major polluted areas that were unhealthy for both the environment and people.

2.) One example of environmental inequalities from the previous readings was the TED talk about energy consumption in cities. The video mentions how minority concentrated areas also happened to be areas with higher temperatures and environmental issues.

1) Racial inequalities have been linked to environmental qualities because often, people were put in polluted areas, to work their hazardous jobs- often oppressed groups.

2) One other example would be redlining districts having to do with 'green space' and eco friendly opportunities- only for certain groups of people

1. One example I found that demonstrates racial inequalities being directly linked to environmental inequalities is that there were many reports demonstrating environmental hardships faced by poor and migrant workers. Because of the racism at the time plus the war, the U.S didn't really care about pollution nor minorities, so they would choose to dump or pollute in areas that would often effect minorities. Another example I found was on page 21 when it says "Environmental damage from the nonstop construction was unequally borne by poor, federally subsidized neighborhoods and their nonwhite inhabitants."

2. One other related example of environmental inequalities from previous readings is because of the structure of our society, minorities were treated unfairly and were essentially forced to live in certain areas of cities. In these areas there were environmental issues resulting from poor waste management.

1) This week's text provided numerous clear examples of racial inequalities connecting to environmental inequalities, one of which was where communities were welcomed to live based on race. Due to redlining, only white families were allowed to live in the housing located outside the production regions in the suburban area. Minority groups were forced to live closer to the production zones and therefore were exposed to greater levels of fumes and waste. Another example provided in the reading this week explained that African American families were forced to live in shacks/minimal housing downstream and downwind from production areas. Essentially placing their homes in the areas with the highest amounts of pollution and emissions.

2) A related example of environmental inequalities from lecture that corresponds to these examples is in the TED talk we watched that discussed the lack of green space available to minority groups in comparison to predominantly white communities. These examples connect as together they show that in both modern statistics and historical cases, white communities are located in areas with less industrial pollution, and minority groups in places with less quality of life.

1. Throughout the text it talked about how people of color couldn't get a job so they had to move to East Bay and they had to live in tent and terrible conditions because that was the only place that would hire them. You could also see this because the minorities couldn't get a job outside of the East Bay that showed racial inequalities because the white people could get jobs anywhere.

2. One other related example of environmental inequalities were a part of the Ted Talks we watch in class on Wednesday because the Ted talks talked about how places in Africa don't have certain access to things and opportunities such as reliable energy.

1) In the reading, there were multiple examples referring to the redlining of minorities. This led to minorities being forced to live near factories where pollution is produces. This led to many health concerns. There was also reference to under-protection of minorities in the workforce. They were pushed to work in dangerous conditions with little to no protection.

2) Another example is when minorities were forced to work in silver mines, suffering from mercury and led poisoning.

1) The lower the class you are in, and your race determined your job, your hours, and where you lived. The indigenous people experienced waste flooding into their homes and rivers/environment from the Hanford Project. The workers also had more strenuous work and were in more danger of injury and illnesses.

2) In London in the 19th century it was a very similar situation regarding germ theory and class rankings. The immigrants and lower class families lived in cramped spaces with waste filled water, and still worked the hardest and were not only discriminated against, but also blamed for the illnesses and un-sanitariness. This relates to the racial inequalities in this WW2 time period in Richmond.

1) Racial inequalities have been linked to environmental inequalities by:

The government put more effort into providing safe housing and good living conditions for white workers, but minority workers were left in unsafe and overcrowded environments.

Minority workers were stuck in places near toxic shipyard industries - they were exposed to pollution in the air, water, and food.

2) An example from previous lectures/readings of environmental inequalities was how lower-income areas were subject to not having as much access to energy compared to more urban or high-income cities. Even though these poorer areas aren't using as much energy as the richer ones, they are the ones who have to deal with the consequences of using too much energy.

1. One way in which racial inequalities have been linked to environmental inequalities is how minorities are often placed into or stuck in regions or parts of a town/city in which there are environmental concerns. One example of this from the reading was of shipyard workers in San Francisco during WWII. The minority shipyard workers who immigrated for work where forced to live in parts of town heavy impacted by shipbuilding pollutants. Redlining practices prevented minorities from obtaining housing outside of polluted areas, while wealthy white families could escape to suburban towns outside of polluted areas.

2. One other example of environmental inequality from a previous lecture was in the urban areas of London. Low-class workers living in the high-density areas of London faced environmental problems resulting in poor waste management. Rich and upper-class people could afford housing outside of the dense urban centers which were not affected by this environmental hazard.

1) through the direct use of redlinging, which is the act of racially segrigating neighborhoods, where subject to worse living conditions through subpare housing and enviournmentally poluted areas and poor infistrucal areas.

2) an example of enivormental inequality would be how the areas in the cities with the poor people tended to reside would be the parts were the weather would get the hottest due to the lack of vegitaion protecting from them.

1. The reading shows that racial inequalities are tied to environmental ones because minority communities often face worse living conditions. For example, Fortson explains how Black and Latino neighborhoods have less access to regular trash pickup and sanitation, which leads to more pollution and health risks compared to white neighborhoods.

2. A related example is the Flint, Michigan water crisis, where a mostly Black community had unsafe drinking water for years. Both examples show how race often determines who has access to clean, safe environments and who is left exposed to harm.

1. the more polluted areas are in spaces with riskier labor, and historically those given such hazardous jobs are those from oppressed parties

2. redlining districts correlate with "green space" maps, where districts with suppressed people have less environmentally friendly districts

1. racial minorities were more likely to work in toxic and polluted environments. Were not given opportunities to work in higher quality environments based off their skin color.

2. Africa is not given the opportunity to use as much carbon footprint which gives them less resources and the ability to better their country.

1. Racial minorities were forced to do more labor and dangerous jobs and it was harmful to the environment because it released gasses and toxins.

2. From the lecture on Monday, an example of environmental inequalities was that poorer people in cities lived in areas that were noticably hotter due to it being underdeveloped and less environmentally friendly

1. Because of racial inequality some people had to live in worse conditions because of non-stop construction. Subsidized neighborhoods and dealing with poor conditions because of growth. Industrial growth and the environmental backlash because of that and they forced colored people to work in that.

2. In the Ted talk from last class it discussed the social economic classes impacted the environment and creating further inequality with living conditions. The people who were segregated against had worse living conditions overall because of this. There's no reason for it to be unequal and no reason for the living and working conditions to be treated this poorly, it seems intentional and racially motivated.
