Small Group Questions What is the make-up of the affected community? What environmental issues-- and what economic issues-- were involved? How have/how can people of faith respond? What brings hope? What is your group’s main “take-away?”

Micah 6:8 What does the Holy One require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?

Report back: Que pasa? Important for us to learn the skills of being succinct and describing what we’ve learned (action skill building) Report back- what’s your main take-away, and what can people of faith do? (20 sec commercials) What are race realities? Other examples of enviro racism?
