Why is #gentrification unjust? In this new paper published in @HousingTheory, I describe and analyze eight types of injustice that have been linked to gentrification.

📢 Are you looking for experts that can talk about flood solutions and how infrastructure investments can bring multiple benefits to communities?
Tap into the #ColorOfWater to find experts like @mdhDuBois (he/him), Director at @sirjLab

“There are environmental injustice issues that are more latent when it comes to infrastructure or lack thereof in communities of color.”
On @publichealthpod today, @mdhDuBois of @sirjLab talks with @drjoshs about infrastructure failures in the US.

“The legacy of racial zoning, segregation, legalized redlining have ultimately led to the isolation, separation and sequestration of racial minorities into communities (with) diminished tax bases, which has had consequences for the built environment, including infrastructure,”
The water crisis in Jackson, Mississippi, is far from over and experts, activists and residents blame environmental racism for it happening in the first place. apnews.com/article/science-r…

“When it comes to water solutions, we need to create pathways for community members to lead – helping to research and decide where dollars go based on real, on-the-ground needs. We must create a community of practitioners.” @mdhDuBois

Just spoke to University of Maryland water systems expert @mdhDuBois. He said there was a lot of uncertainty surrounding the situation. He said these water contamination problems like the one in Baltimore be resolved in hours or weeks or "beyond."

Just wanted to drop this here in case folks are interested & wanted to make some sense of what were witnessing in Jackson & beyond. A scoping review & conceptual piece that I think is a decent read & might be helpful. A lot of good citations too! #EJ #Infrastructure #Hazards
My latest manuscript entitled, “Unequal Protection Revisited: Planning for Environmental Justice, Hazard Vulnerability, & Critical Infrastructure in Communities of Color.”

Another long, hot, fulfilling Sunday sampling homes with sewage backups with the wonderful @mdhDuBois @PriscilaBRAlves @emmie_healey @sirjLab @BlueWaterBmore & awesome community partners. Can’t think of a better way to spend #NationalWaterQualityMonth @EPAwater @UMDPublicHealth

So excited to attend #AEES2022 and present the ongoing IoT project to the public! There's no such great opportunity without the supports from my advisor @ec0p0lis, the PI/my committee @mdhDuBois, sirj lab manager @PriscilaBRAlves, and every team member in the iot project. Thx!!
This week, our Manager/Postdoc @PriscilaBRAlves and PhD student @QIANYAO352 participated of the #AEES2022 Conference held in Baltimore (MD).
They both showed results from @sirjLab’s ongoing projects!
Well done! We’re so proud of you! #Vulnerability #Participation #IoTsensors
