Environmental Justice Tours

This exhibit showcases select records of past Environmental Justice (EJ) Tours over the years that were led by Tishman Center Director Ana Baptista. EJ Tours are an important way we can gain a greater understanding of environmental justice issues in practice. By visiting with grassroots community based organizations in these two EJ communities we have a unique opportunity to get a deeper sense of EJ work in practice. The tours are a chance to physically experience and be immersed in the spaces that EJ communities call home and to enrich your appreciation for the many dimensions of what makes each community special. This initial touch point gives students a chance to learn about EJ in an experiential way but to also reflect on your own commitments and connectedness to these places.
