Miami-Dade County faces a critical battle against environmental racism as plans for a massive trash incinerator threaten to impact predominantly Black and Hispanic communities. In this episode, we uncover the history of environmental injustice, from Warren County's protests in 1982 to today's ongoing fight in Miami. Join me, King Kurus, as we explore the root causes, the voices leading the charge, and what this means for the future of environmental justice.
