Polluted Promises: Environmental Racism and the Search for Justice in a Southern Town

Over the years, environmental racism has become the rallying cry for many communities as they discover the contaminations of toxic chemicals and industrial waste in their own backyards. This book shows that even in the post-civil rights era, race and class are key factors in determining the politics of pollution.
