In local communities across the country, people of color, the poor, women, migrant farm workers, and industrial workers are joining forces with civil rights, peace and local community activists to challenge corporate polluters. These grassroots organizations are reshaping the environmental movement by forcing it to incorporate social justice issues such as racism, class, gender, antimilitarism, and poverty. Toxic Struggles forcefully documents this fast-growing environmental justice movement led by the people who suffer most from corporate ecological devastation.

This book documents well the growing environmental justice movement. I especially appreciate the consideration of many coalitions among people. By moving beyond theory and into practice, we can see how concern for environmental issues requires us to act.
This book is full of texts supporting socialism, supporting environmentalism, opposing large corporations. Where are the texts favoring the other side? If liberals are as open minded as they claim, why are the opinions expressed in the selection of texts all the same? It's disgusting that this biased piece of writing is used in schools.
