505 0  The environmental noxiousness, racial inequities and 
       community health project -- A history of violence : 
       indigenous and black conquest, dispossession & genocide in
       settler colonial nations -- Re-thinking waste : mapping 
       racial geographies of violence on the colonial landscape -
       - Not in my backyard : the politics of race, place & waste
       in Nova Scotia -- Sacrificial lives : how environmental 
       racism gets under the skin -- Narratives of resistance, 
       mobilizing & activism in the fight against environmental 
       racism in Nova Scotia -- The road up ahead. 
520    In There's Something In The Water, Ingrid R.G. Waldron 
       examines the legacy of environmental racism and its health
       impacts in Indigenous and Black communities in Canada, 
       using Nova Scotia as a case study, and the grassroots 
       resistance activities by Indigenous and Black communities 
       against the pollution and poisoning of their communities. 
       Using settler colonialism as the overarching theory, 
       Waldron unpacks how environmental racism operates as a 
       mechanism of erasure enabled by the intersecting dynamics 
       of white supremacy, power, state-sanctioned racial 
       violence, neoliberalism and racial capitalism in white 
       settler societies. By and large, the environmental justice
       narrative in Nova Scotia fails to make race explicit, 
       obscuring it within discussions on class, and this type of
       strategic inadvertence mutes the specificity of Mi'kmaq 
       and African Nova Scotian experiences with racism and 
       environmental hazards in Nova Scotia. By redefining the 
       parameters of critique around the environmental justice 
       narrative and movement in Nova Scotia and Canada, Waldron 
       opens a space for a more critical dialogue on how 
       environmental racism manifests itself within this 
       intersectional context. Waldron also illustrates the ways 
       in which the effects of environmental racism are 
       compounded by other forms of oppression to further 
       dehumanize and harm communities already dealing with pre-
       existing vulnerabilities, such as long-standing social and
       economic inequality. Finally, Waldron documents the long 
       history of struggle, resistance, and mobilizing in 
       Indigenous and Black communities to address environmental 
       racism.
