HDEV Seminar Series: Dr. Nadia Kim, “Refusing Death: Immigrant Women and the Fight for Environmental Justice in LA”
Library Room 507Refusing Death, an award-winning book, examines race, class, and citizenship with respect to the growing social phenomenon of marginalized and unauthorized immigrants – especially women and youth – leading community grassroots movements, one of which focuses on environmental (health) justice. Through ethnographic observation, in-depth interviews, and document analysis of Asian American and Latina environmental justice activists in the industrial-port belt of Los Angeles, Kim details how these immigrant women activists redefine notions of politics, community, and citizenship in the face of America’s nativist racism and its system of class injustice at the core of environmental injustice.
