In this episode, we explore the critical connection between environmental issues and racial justice. Environmental hazards disproportionately impact communities of color, often with devastating health and economic consequences. We’ll discuss with our featured guest Beth Vild how environmental racism shows up in Akron—whether through pollution, lack of green spaces, or unsafe water—and the power of community organizing for environmental equity. Join us as we highlight local efforts to ensure clean air, water, and a healthy environment for all, and learn how you can get involved in the fight for environmental justice.
