Abstract
The environmental justice movement and community has its earliest roots in the protests surrounding the Warren County Landfill. As a student at a North Carolina university at the time, I was moved by the protests but unclear how to engage. Eventually, I found a way to marry my love of mathematics, particularly spatial analysis of data, to serving communities that are disproportionately burdened by environmental exposures.
