UCLA Law Prof: ‘Hi-Tech Capitalist Solutions’ For Climate Change Are Racist

AchiumeA law professor at UCLA believes “hi-tech capitalist solutions” for the alleged climate-change crisis are “perpetuating racism.”

Tendayi Achiume [pictured], who’s finishing up her tenure as United Nations Special Rapporteur on Contemporary Forms of Racism, Racial Discrimination, Xenophobia, and Related Intolerance, told The Guardian that “green solutions […] are being implemented at the expense of racially and ethnically marginalized groups and Indigenous peoples.” [emphasis, links added]


These include electric vehicles, renewable energy, and “the rewilding of vast tracts of land.”

The Zambia native said:

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

She obviously sees everything through the racism lens.  Why doesn't she go back to Zambia where there is no racism :whistle: and she can live in poverty and won't have to face it? :tongue2:
