Effects of COVID-19 on Incarcerated People
UCSB Underground Scholars
Online
The MCC is excited to launch informally led, themed discussion spaces! Join us this month (May) every Monday, to unpack and deconstruct issues that are affecting UCSB students and communities beyond campus. We hope you all, especially those most vulnerable and marginalized, use this platform as a safe and brave space to share experiences or worries if needed, as we all connect with other people with whom we can build networks of community.

MCC Lounge
Environmental health scientist and environmental justice advocate Sacoby Wilson will detail the fight to address environmental injustice in the form of environmental racism, environmental classism, and environmental slavery across the U.S. He will discuss his efforts to 'inpower' communities that have been differentially burdened by environmental hazards and his participation in community-university partnerships to address this injustice in Flint, Michigan, the Washington, DC region, and the Carolinas. Dr. Wilson is Assistant Professor of Applied Environmental Health at University of Maryland’s School of Public Health.
