Waste, Environment and Race: A Community Conversation Part 2

Join the Brooklyn Solid Waste Advisory Board (BkSWAB) on Wednesday, March 16th 6:30pm – 8pm, for Part 2 of its Waste, Environment & Race – A Community Conversation event series. This event addresses the intersection of food, health, and waste and its impact on vulnerable communities. A panel of community leaders and organizers, moderated by BkSWAB, will speak to their ongoing work to address racial, environmental and climate injustice.

Featured panelists:

• Jesi Taylor Cruz, Discard Studies Researcher and Zero Waste Advisor
• Justin Craig, Farm Coordinator – Red Hook Houses Farm, Red Hook Initiative
