That’s a wrap! Our strike ended late this afternoon. Our wins include a meaningful raise and better dependent health coverage. It’s not quite everything we demanded but I’m shocked we got what we did, and it’s because of the tenacity of my scrappy group of striking colleagues. twitter.com/TUGSA_6290/sta…

These injustices in NC are connected because NC environmental violators are global violators. We have to keep in mind issues of racial capitalism and white supremacy. Thank you Ms. Muhammad and thank you @EcoGreenQueen for moderating!
Seeing this while in an #AAIHS2023 session discussing a film on hurricane flooding and displacement in Princeville, NC, the first chartered Black town in the US that cannot make its own ordinances, is surreal to say the least
I knew it would happen, but even so, it is hurtful to see. If you are interested in helping Pajaro City, check out Regeneración or the City of Watsonville. I'll be working with LAEP and other Berkeley faculty and students to help this upcoming week. https://apnews.com/article/california-atmospheric-river-storm-2677c9eeb138f2a672a2596ef4b1563e…

A @Planning_theory comment piece from @danielle_zoe & I examining what we’re calling "municipal undergreening," a systemic reluctance of municipalities to invest in green infrastructure in marginalized communities. So much more to come!

Freedom Hill opens with devastating images of a flooded Princeville, NC, contrasted with beautiful, candid images of Black families who have been residents for generations. The same Hurricane Floyd that upended the hog waste lagoons also displaced these families #AAIHS2023 twitter.com/CrystalNEddins…
dialogue about being from the South, learning about environmental disparities and the hidden histories of their communities, and mobilizing Black people to tell Black stories
NC is the largest pork producer in the country, more hogs are concentrated in only 2 counties than anywhere else. The industry sponsors NC lawmakers to try to prevent harmed residents from holding the hog industry accountable for its environmental racism #AAIHS2023
Ms. Muhammad is speaking on her experience as an organizer in the wake of the 1999 Hurricane Floyd, that emptied out open-air hog farm lagoons and inflicted environmental harm on Black, Latinx, and Indigenous peoples of eastern NC #AAIHS2023
So what are people who are staying on here but security minded doing about this? Obviously subscribing to the hostage situation he wants us in is not an option.
Happy Monday! This week's OUR Professional Development workshop will be "Applying for Fellowships and Scholarships" facilitated by Dr. Keener.
Hope to see you all there!
