Selection 34 - Environmental Justice for All

People all over for years now have watched their neighboring communties as well as their own become dumping grounds for the waste we do not have room for.  Citizens were quiet for a little while but not for long, it states that there were local activists that had been organizing something under the mantle of environmental justice since 1968.  In the early 90's there was a new better group of activists that brought attention to pollution problems threatening the low-income and minority communties.
Birth of a Movement:  around 3 decade ago environmental justice didn't quite reach the radar for many environmental or civil rights groups, but shortly did after.
It's about Winning, Not Whining: environmental justice groups are making their voices heard very loud, there are alot of laws passed for cleaner environments.  There is a Clean Air Act that focuses on helping the poorer people and everyone around them.
I hope this keeps up, and I hope things get better, and environmental justice is served!
