    Collateral of the Permanent War: How ‘National Security’ Made Communities and Ecosystems Disposable (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    I was in junior high school in the Bronx when the planes hit the Twin Towers. When the towers fell, something shifted overnight. As the smoke settled over lower Manhattan, another reality settled over neighborhoods like mine.

    Building a Better Democracy Block-by-Block: What the Environmental Justice Movement Can Teach Us About Community Organizing (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    In the summer of 1986, New York City sited the North River Sewage Treatment Plant in West Harlem—a primarily lower-income, Black and brown neighborhood—after a wealthier, whiter neighborhood successfully said ‘no’ to it in their backyard. In a powerful act of democracy, a group of locals convened and together said enough, by way of their bodies blocking traffic on West Side Highway on Martin Luther King Jr. Day in 1988.

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    In January 2026, the Department of Homeland Security launched a recruitment ad campaign across social media. In one ad, a cowboy on horseback rides in front of a sweeping mountain range, while a B-2 bomber is visible in the sky overhead. The song “We’ll Have Our Home Again”—popular in online neo-Nazi communities—plays in the background.

    America’s Trash Can: Toxic Prisons and the Calculus of Disposability (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    The first time I walked into a prison, I was 20 years old. It was before sunrise when I left on the 55 mile journey deep into Chicago’s Southwestern suburbs. The drive out of Chicago always felt endless, past the bungalow neighborhoods thinning into strip malls and industrial yards, past the freight terminals and the truck-loading docks squatting at the edge of the city.
