Description

South Memphis residents are on the front lines of environmental racism — and they’ve had enough. The NAACP has sued Musk’s XAI for operating unpermitted methane turbines that poison Black neighborhoods, deeming the area a “sacrifice zone.” These turbines spew toxic fumes under the guise of “clean energy,” evading permits and endangering public health in a community already suffering decades of neglect and pollution. 🔥 “Clean air is a human right.” 🔥 “South Memphis was a sacrifice zone.” 🔥 “There is no such exemption.” 🔥 Toxic turbines—poison for data. This isn’t innovation. It’s environmental injustice. #SouthMemphisSacrificeZone #XAILawsuit #CleanAirDenied #ToxicTurbines #EnvironmentalRacism #NAACPMemphis #PoliticalFire Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjXB7nX8bL2U2sje8d212Yw/join Support #RolandMartinUnfiltered and #BlackStarNetwork 👉🏾 Use Cash App by visiting Stripe https://buy.stripe.com/7sI3ccgYyfSQ8y45kl 👉🏾 PayPal ☛ https://www.paypal.me/rmartinunfiltered Venmo ☛https://venmo.com/rmunfiltered Zelle ☛ [email protected] Annual or monthly recurring #BringTheFunk Fan Club membership via paypal ☛ https://rolandsmartin.com/rmu-paypal/ Download the #BlackStarNetwork app on iOS, AppleTV, Android, Android TV, Roku, FireTV, SamsungTV and XBox 👉🏾 http://www.blackstarnetwork.com #RolandMartinUnfiltered and the #BlackStarNetwork are news reporting platforms covered under Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.
