{"title":"Struggle for Recognitional Justice: Cartographic-Affective Resistance to a Proposed Compressor Station in Buckingham County, Virginia","authors":"Janeé Petersen, Harold A. Perkins","doi":"10.1089/env.2022.0090","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1089/env.2022.0090","url":null,"abstract":"The Problem: In 2014, Dominion Energy proposed a large compressor station in Buckingham County, Virginia to pressurize its Atlantic Coast Pipeline. Dominion and regulators presented demographic data that erased African Americans living near the compressor site in the community of Union Hill, to circumvent environmental justice concerns during the permitting process. Theoretical Framing: The erasure of African Americans in Union Hill for the construction of a compressor station was a recognitional injustice. Art is useful for contesting misrecognition by generating affective solidarities among various and dispersed groups of people concerned about injustice. Case Study Design: Qualitative methods are used to study how protestors deploy creativity to overcome misrecognition in Union Hill and Greater Buckingham County, Virginia. We focus, in particular, on two photographic series created to generate affect against the compressor station and pipeline. Case Study Results: Photography as art is a powerful protest tool combating misrecognition by publicly highlighting the link between people and place. While the photos highlighted are not maps in a conventional sense, they are ‘cartographic-affective’ because they (re)map the contours of life for otherwise unseen people living in Union Hill and Buckingham County. Conclusion: Cartographic-affect in the featured photographs results in recognitional justice as protesters are not only made public, but reconnected to places from which they were previously erased. In the process, the site of struggle against a petro-hegemony in North Carolina is (re)situated and (re)scaled away from the hegemon's disempowering state and census tract levels toward empowering bodily, community, and national scales.","PeriodicalId":46143,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Justice","volume":"79 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135569737","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We investigated effects of living near a hazardous waste thermal treatment facility through three EJ aspects: recognitional, procedural, and distributive justice. The study involved the collection of oral history interviews from residents of Colfax, a town in Grant Parish, Louisiana, that hosts an open burn/open detonation hazardous waste thermal treatment facility. The facility processes materials such as munitions, theme park waste, and contaminated soils from Superfund sites, and it increased its volume drastically in 2014. Residents reported adverse health conditions and exposure to air pollutants. We analyzed how the three themes of EJ emerged from the interviews using the NVivo coding software. We recorded narratives that described substantial changes around people's identity, health, and social experiences after the facility's increase in operations. Residents described a peaceful and clean community before the facility's construction in 1980. Some residents stated that the community had not been consulted when the facility was established or when its operations were increased. Colfax residents' narratives jointly relay a proud history of community connections and homeownership that was undermined by environmental health hazards created by the facility and by their exclusion from local and state government decisions about the facility's placement.","PeriodicalId":46143,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Justice","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135825153","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Engineering research and practice will both be essential to realizing Justice 40 by identifying infrastructure problems, improving designs, conducting novel studies, and developing new technologies, with the collective goal to provide environmental safety to the public. While engineering can be effective in assessing and improving infrastructure in general, however, not only are traditional engineering theories of change ineffective at addressing fundamental inequities, but also many aspects result in the further perpetuation of environmental injustice. In addition, there exists no cross-sector structural template from which to connect, design, execute, and evaluate engineering infrastructure research and practice through an environmental justice (EJ) framework. In the absence of such a connective template, different sectors continue to conduct engineering efforts under traditional sector-specific paradigms or theories on how to effect change. The work herein presents a cross-sector theory of change framework, or a working structure for how to adopt and systematically integrate EJ principles into engineering research and practice processes to advance EJ. We assess common theories of change practised in the market-based sector, philanthropy, academia, government, and community-based sector and provide analysis, critique, and recommendations as to how engineering research and practice processes can be improved to equitably realize “Justice 40.”","PeriodicalId":46143,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Justice","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135850475","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
