Dr. Felicia Marie Knaul presents two measures of this global pain divide\, serious health-related suffering (SHS) and distributed opioids in morphine equivalent (DOME)\, and discusses what it would take to close the divide.

SUMMARY:Nadia Kim\, Texas A&M University\, "How LA’s Immigrants\, Namely Women\, Fight Environmental Injustice By Way of The Embodied Community"
DESCRIPTION:Nadia Kim\, Texas A&M University\n \n\n\n\nNadia Y. Kim is the George Sumey Jr Professor in the Liberal Arts at Texas A&M University (Department of Sociology). Her research focuses on US race and citizenship hierarchies concerning Korean/Asian Americans and South Koreans\, race and nativist racism in Los Angeles (e.g.\, 1992 LA Unrest)\, environmental (in)justice\, immigrant women\, comparative racialization of Asian and Black Americans and Latinx groups\, and race theory. Dr. Kim has written two multi-award-winning books\, Refusing Death: Immigrant Women and the Fight for Environmental Justice in LA (Stanford\, 2021) and Imperial Citizens: Koreans and Race from Seoul to LA (Stanford\, 2008)\, lead edited Disciplinary Futures: Sociology in Conversation with American\, Ethnic\, and Indigenous Studies (NYU\, 2023)\, and (co)authored articles for journals like Social Forces\, Social Problems\, and International Migration Review. She and/or her work have been featured by Red Table Talk\, National and Southern California Public Radio\, Radio Korea\, The Washington Post\, The Chronicle of Higher Education\, (MS)NBC News\, The Korea Times\, and NYLON Magazine.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \nHow LA’s Immigrants\, Namely Women\, Fight Environmental Injustice By Way of The Embodied Community: A Meditation on Methods & Findings\nIn recent decades\, marginalized and unauthorized immigrants\, especially mothers\, are increasingly making political inroads by way of grassroots community activism.  Drawing on four years of ethnography\, interviews\, and documents involving mostly Filipina Asian and Mexican Latina Environmental Justice activists in port-industrial Los Angeles\, this movement is much more than an effort to spare more children and neighbors from becoming asthmatic or cancerous or to seek better healthcare for them.  Immigrant activists see the diesel and oil refinery pollution in America’s largest urban oil field as a battle against the (nativist) racism and classism that they deem responsible for over-polluting their embodied communities – the minoritized and impoverished collectives that embody the love\, joy\, pollution\, and sickness of their neighborhoods. In response\, they contest a system they deem physically and emotionally violent and neglectful.  A major focus of this talk is how I conducted the data collection and methodology for this study by way of participant ethnography\, in-depth interviewing\, and documents analysis and from an approach that centers feminism\, intersectionality\, and participatory research.
