Envirocast PODCAST EPISODE: What is Environmental Racism?

The Environment and Racism can seem like separate problems, but would you believe me if I told you they were connected? Environmental Racism is a big problem around the world, and in this Episode we try and understand what it is. To understand the issue, I talked with Tina Johnson. She is the director of the National Black Environmental Justice Network. We ask her, what Environmental Racism is, how the environment and racism are connected, and why it is such a problematic issue.
