Do you have environmental racism in your area?

I am doing a school and personal research project on environmental racism. Looking for factual evidence only-on either side of the fence-your opinion is great-but not what i am looking for here. What I am interested in is specific instances where it is obvious that environmental or economic decisions have been made based on the racial makeup of the area. For example: an affluent white neighborhood gets a higher than proportional amount of funding for road inprovements - or the opposite scenario a minority neighborhood has schools that are run down and underpaid teachers. also-when you send me your info, please give me authorization to use your information, if you want to give your name and/or contact info that is great=if not, thats ok-just put geographic area.
