  • 2014 Environmental Justice Scorecard 2 Championing Solutions to the Environmental Health and Climate Change Issues Facing Working Class Communities of Color
    CEJA’s 2nd Environmental Justice Scorecard The California Environmental Justice Alliance (CEJA) is proud to release our 2nd Environmental Justice Score- card for the 2014 Legislative Session. This scorecard is the only one in the state to assess how well California’s elected officials supported actions to address environmental issues that impact low-income communities and communities of color. Scorecard Methodology and Scoring We selected bills that CEJA as a coalition or our members publicly supported or opposed. We chose bills that were significant: they would either make important contributions to addressing environmental justice, or would enact policies detrimental to communities of color. In total, CEJA scored 13 bills. Senators were scored on a total of 11 bills and Assemblymembers on a total of 12 bills. Of the ten bills that made it to the Governor’s desk, he signed eight of them. Unfortunately, due to rule restrictions, Senate pro Tem De León was unable to cast his vote on a couple of measures included in our scorecard because he was engaged in helping to move other important measures on the Assembly floor, thus impacting his score. However, none of these bills were close votes and in both instances he had previously voted for the bills in committee. We believe his score would have been different if the Senate Rules had similar rules as the Assembly on such matters. About the California Environmental Justice Alliance The California Environmental Justice Alliance (CEJA) is a statewide coalition of grassroots, environmental jus- tice organizations. We are working to achieve environmental justice by organizing in low-income communities and communities of color – those most impacted by environmental hazards – and by pushing for policies at the federal, state, regional and local levels that protect public health and the environment.

The organizing process began with discussions between Women's International League for Peace and Freedom and women in the Upstate Feminist Peace Alliance (NY), to consider siting the camp at the Seneca Army Depot in Romulus, NY. The planning meetings for the Encampment have since grown to include women from Toronto, Ottawa, Rochester, Oswego, Syracuse, Geneva, Ithaca, Albany, New York City, Boston, Philadelphia, and some of the smaller towns in between. Some of the tasks have been organized regionally and others have been done locally. Our planning meetings are open, and we are committed to consensus as our decision making process.

Course Description: After the first successful nuclear test in 1945, Robert J. Oppenheimer—the father of the atomic bomb—reportedly quoted Indian scripture: “Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.” Thus began America’s long and strange interaction with nuclear energy. In this research and reading seminar, we will explore this interaction by examining topics such as foreign policy and the arms race, civil defense planning, nuclear energy, the peace movement, the environmental movement, climate change, and many more. But in confronting nuclear energy, Americans thought and reflected on much more than just the power of the atom. They have wrestled with elemental questions such as the human relationship to nature, the nature of progress, the obligations of citizenship, and the balance between national security and democracy. Exploring nuclear energy will allow us to investigate these larger themes in American history. The course will be run as a reading seminar. There will be very little lecture. Class time will be spent discussing and analyzing the readings. A majority of the readings will be primary sources—that is, the documents written or created as Americans encountered nuclear energy. These include, for example, press releases from the White House, letters and speeches written by government officials and nuclear industry representatives, promotional materials for anti-nuclear rallies, and much more. A central goal of the course is to learn how to critically analyze these documents, and then to use them in creating your own original arguments about American encounters with nuclear energy.

  • Introduction
    Notes Introduction 1 “Beyond Anxiety,” editorial, New York Times, June 13, 1982, E22. 2 For the purposes of simplicity, this book refers to the assemblage of actors engaged in various types of activism against nuclear power, nuclear weapons, and other related threats as the “anti-nuclear movement.” Although I detail individual movements within the larger whole, the existence of substantial cross-pollination among movement organizations and coalitions indicates that a more appropriate term is the singular. On the idea of a “movement of movements,” see Van Gosse, “A Movement of Movements: The Definition and Periodization of the New Left,” in A Companion to Post-1945 America, ed. Jean-Christophe Agnew and Roy Rosenzweig (Malden, MA: Blackwell, 2002), 277–302. 3 On this diversity, see Jo Freeman and Victoria Johnson, eds, Waves of Protest: Social Movements Since the Sixties (Lanham, MD: Rowman & Littlefield, 1999). See also Simon Hall, American Patriotism, American Protest: Social Movements Since the Sixties (Philadelphia: University of Pennsylvania Press, 2011). 4 See Fred Halliday, The Making of the Second Cold War (London: Verso, 1983). 5 On beginnings, see Lawrence S. Wittner, Toward Nuclear Abolition: A His- tory of the World Nuclear Disarmament Movement, 1971 to the Present (Stan- ford: Stanford University Press, 2003), Chapter 1. On the dwindling of the movement, see “Movement Gap,” editorial, Nation, 4 November 1991, 539–40. 6 The phrase “the challenge of peace” recalls the controversial pastoral letter issued in 1983 by the US National Conference of Catholic Bishops’ Ad Hoc Committee on War and Peace. Entitled “The Challenge of Peace: God’s Prom- ise and Our Response,” the letter attempted to define the Catholic Church’s opposition to the nuclear arms race.
