“…Black geographies scholars make clear that subaltern communities hold more than data to feed into status-quo, state-centric expert science, rather they hold knowledge from the everyday, knowledge on new world-building and non-dominant ways of knowing and relating to space and place, collective memory, and various forms of cultural expressions that shape Black intellectual life. An intellectual life derived even as they are living within the realm of violence, oppression, and death (Lipsitz, 2011;McKittrick, 2006;Woods, 1998Woods, , 2017. McKittrick (2016) argues that "the task is not to measure and assess the unfree -and seek consolation in naming violence -but rather posit that many divergent and different and relational voices of unfreedom are analytical and intellectual sites that can tell us something new about our academic concerns and our anti-colonial futures."…”

“…(Campt, 2017: 59) The processes of racial capitalism function on top of, around, and within the lives of Black people in EJ communities working toward the slow deaths of people, landscapes, and place (Vasudevan, 2019). Woods (2017) writes about Black EJ communities in Louisiana that have "ceased to exist" (249). This phenomenon stems from residential decline and corporate buyout, resulting in an empty town to be rolled over for industrial expansion.…”

More than just dying: Black life and futurity in the face of state-sanctioned environmental racism

Environmental justice (EJ) scholarship has long done work in and on Black communities. Yet, the field’s engagement with critical race studies has been rather recent and limited. This paper questions what we learn about Black living from EJ scholarship. I argue that there are two main registers of Black living in EJ scholarship: dying and activism. I draw on Black feminist geographies to think and imagine EJ work that incorporates nuance to the modalities of Black life and futurity in the face of state-sanctioned environmental injustice. The goal of this is not to deter EJ scholars from exposing instantiations of environmental injustice in the world, nor to undermine the deadly realities of EJ communities. Rather, this paper pushes EJ scholars to be wary of essentializing Black communities to death and decay and urges these scholars to behold Black life and futurity experienced in close proximity to death in these spaces. I provide examples of Black living and making way for Black futurity that occurs beyond the registers of dying and activism in EJ communities, such as care, Black intellectual life, and refusal, registers made apparent through a Black geographies lens.

Advancing equitable health and well-being across urban–rural sustainable infrastructure systems

et al. 2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Infrastructure systems have direct implications for how health and well-being evolve across urban–rural systems. Scientists, practitioners, and policy-makers use domain-specific methods and tools to characterize sectors of infrastructure, but these approaches do not capture the cascading effects across interrelated infrastructure and governance domains. We argue that the development and management of sustainable urban infrastructure must focus on interactions across urban and rural places to advance equitable health and well-being. We call for a research agenda that focuses on urban–rural infrastructure systems, addressing trade-offs and synergies, decision-making, institutional arrangements, and effective co-production of knowledge across the diverse places connected by infrastructure.
