      There’s a massive, almost volcanic fire in Monrovia today. The city was founded in honor of James Monroe, who advocated for black people to move to Africa. Schools and business there were segregated there until the 1970s.https://twitter.com/aurabogado/status/748603714898788352 …

      So... If you grew up in Southern California, you grew up with images like these from the local brush fires: pic.twitter.com/syQodclUJL

      Someone should make a map of greater LA’s all-white strongholds and overlay it with where we’ve seen massive fires in the past few decades. My guess is they’d often match perfectly.

      Black/latinx people were needed for service work in Monrovia but only were allowed to live in the southeast part of town. They were forbidden from being closer to nature, north of the railroad tracks, unless it was for daytime work. That’s the area that’s on fire today.

      I get why people who don’t understand LA ecology or the history of white supremacy here blame climate change for these fires. But it’s not that simple. The fact that we’ve long suppressed fires for wealthy segregated areas is what’s fueling these massive fires today.

          And climate change exacerbates all these existing inequalities. These now-worsened "natural" disasters will only amplify our human-caused disasters.

          And then the mudslides. If your home didn't burn, it's now in danger of sliding onto PCH with the first decent rain of the season. Entitlement is a bitch.
