DESCRIPTION:ICW is proud to present Dr. Stevie Ruiz\, Professor of Chicana/
 o Studies at California State University\, Northridge\, in conversation wi
 th Jessica Kim about his new book\, Stewards of the Land: Race and Reclaim
 ing Environmental Labor in the American West. Challenging conventional his
 tories that center white environmentalists\, Ruiz reveals environmentalism
  in the American West as a multiracial project shaped by the labor\, knowl
 edge\, and activism of Asian migrants and Chicana/o communities. Drawing o
 n archival research and comparative ethnic studies\, Stewards of the Land:
  Race and Reclaiming Environmental Labor in the American West traces the d
 eep roots of environmental justice in struggles against land dispossession
 \, labor exploitation\, and racial inequality\, offering a compelling new 
 account of how frontline communities helped build and reimagine environmen
 tal spaces in the United States.
