Black people and communities of color (mostly low-income) have for centuries borne disproportionately the impacts of environmental degradation as well as racist reproductive health policies.

In finding common ground, activists across the United States are analyzing and actively dismantling environmental racism and discriminatory health policies that are built on market fundamentalisms and building more just world for their communities and others.
