I Can’t Breathe, Pollution,&Racial Justice
from Society for Social Studies of Science
(2021-5-3 9:01)
|
This post explores the politics and perceptibility of breath during the COVID-19 era as it relates to the intertwined history of environmental justice, the civil rights movement, and racial justice. Using an STS-centered approach, it will connect how long-standing issues of pollution have contributed to racial inequities in health outcomes, leaving certain populations vulnerable to the pandemic. This discourse is related to the intersection of racial justice and breath with the tragic resurgence of the “I Can’t Breathe” movement after George Floyd’s death, highlighting social issues against a scientific backdrop.
