I'm embarrassed to say that I've lived in Michigan most of my life and wasn't familiar with the term environmental racism. Obviously I knew about the Flint water issue - and knew that a large percentage of people who live in Flint were black. I just didn't know there was a name for what they have to deal with because of racism, nor did I know that even if they make more money than white people, they still tend to live in worse areas.
