Small environmental justice groups are the leaders of the environmental movement. However, they do not receive the resources needed to sustain their organizations and communities. Everyday environmental justice groups led by people of color are fighting environmental hazards and power structures to achieve equity. Join Green 2.0 and the Partnership for Southern Equity (PSE) for a discussion with leaders of color who are running environmental justice organizations, strengthening their communities, and protecting our environment.
