Thinking about the ways in which our systems actively seek to harm black people and the poor, how entire other systems were created to protect people based off our struggles, how now we’re on the cusp of losing all that — yet still we reclaim our heritage to benefit our communities spite of it

Man.
Ultimately, the protest was not successful. The state dumped 7,097 truckloads - 40,000 tons - of toxic soil in a Warren County landfill. Though the community was forced to live alongside hazardous waste, their actions gained the attention of prominent civil rights and environmental leaders - and ignited the national environmental justice movement. It raised awareness that polluting industries and toxic waste facilities are often sited in communities of color and established how ordinary citizens can organize to fight back. Many national and international climate-justice actions today, in fact, grew directly out of the model established in Warren County. The protest also shaped the legacy inherited by the child born a few months later. "That's how I got my name, PCB - Patrick Chandler Brown, " Patrick says. "I was named after what happened."
