I do believe and see how historical events, laws, and all that were intentionally built into the structures of our country still exist and impact our society today. Having read about, heard from personal testimonies, and learning from people who advocate for social justice in various areas, I am not only more aware of what I've been told through these videos but also have learned much I did not know about the history of racism in our country, including environmental racism. It does sadden and anger me even more. And I want to learn more to be a more effective advocate, beginning with changing myself in ways I need to in order to be a change agent along with others.
