Document Summary
Replanting of bioengineered plants versus traditional plants. In many ways it accumulates to the way we view land. In the native view and most importantly practice land is a relative and is entrusted to us not for the present but for future generations. In western view it is a resource and used for development. Yet, as tribal councils continue to reproduce nation state ideas to property, then land becomes a resource to develop at expense of future generations. Environmental racism: policy or practice that differentially affects or disadvantages (intentionally or unintentional) individuals, groups, or communities systemically because of their race and/or class. Poor communities, indigenous communities, and communicates of color often are targeted for sites of environmental hazards. These politically and economic less empowered populations experience disproportionate impacts of hazardous sites. How the land which race lives on is treated and viewed. Bids for reservation on land for mining.
