Earlier this month, Professor Rebecca Bratspies delivered the Annual Lloyd K. Garrison Lecture on Environmental Law at the Elisabeth Haub School of Law at Pace University on "Mapping Injustice: Race, Place, and Environment in New York City." Professor Rebecca Bratspies currently serves as a Visiting Professor of Environmental Law and Haub Visiting Scholar at Haub Law. She is also a Professor at CUNY School of Law, where she is the founding director of the Center for Urban Environmental Reform. Professor Bratspies focused her lecture on Environmental Justice, which she describes as having at least two rough components: “fair treatment, a substantive outcome” and “meaningful involvement,” which can be described as a procedural component. She used these components throughout her lecture to discuss the “highly racialized inequality” that exists today, how we got here, and what we can do about it. Her fascinating presentation chronicled the history of New York, starting with the 1890’s, and the evolution of housing in New York from single-family to tenement style buildings and the progression of events and laws and agencies. The Lloyd K. Garrison Lecture on Environmental Law was established in memory of Lloyd K. Garrison in 1995.
