520    "The industrial-port belt of Los Angeles is home to eleven
       of the top twenty oil refineries in California, the 
       largest ports in the country, and those "racist monuments"
       we call freeways. In this uncelebrated corner of "La La 
       Land" through which most of America's goods transit, 
       pollution is literally killing the residents. In response,
       a grassroots movement for environmental justice has grown,
       predominated by Asian and undocumented Latin@ immigrant 
       women who are transforming our political landscape-yet we 
       know very little about these change makers. In Refusing 
       Death, Nadia Y. Kim tells their stories, finding that the 
       women are influential because of their ability to remap 
       politics, community, and citizenship in the face of the 
       country's nativist racism and system of class injustice, 
       defined not just by disproportionate environmental 
       pollution but also by neglected schools, surveillance and 
       deportation, and political marginalization. The women are 
       highly conscious of how these harms are an assault on 
       their bodies and emotions, and their resulting reliance on
       a state they prefer to avoid and ignore. In spite of such 
       challenges and contradictions, however, they have 
       developed creative, unconventional, and loving ways to 
       support and protect one another. They challenge the 
       state's betrayal, demand respect, and, ultimately, refuse 
       death"--|cProvided by publisher.
