听Environmental justice 鈥 Race and disasters 鈥 Qualitative methods
In my research, I seek to understand the different ways marginalized communities advocate against vulnerability-making processes from outside influences and top-down 鈥渟olutions.鈥澨
In the environmental classes I teach, I ask students to identify other ways their identities -visible or invisible 鈥 contribute to how they understand and respond to different environmental issues. In my advocacy, I focus on the ways in which the resources or privileges I have can be best used by others in their community struggles.
