<div class="gmail_default"><span style="font-size: small;">In Puerto
Rico, what the State has billed as “progress” and “development”
has often resulted in environmental harms to ecosystems and
communities. In this talk Prof. Hilda Lloréns will detail the
makings of environmental injustice in Puerto Rico from the 1970s
to the present. </span>
<p><span style="font-size: small;">Hilda Lloréns is an
anthropologist whose research examines the relationship
between race, ethnicity, and gender and different
manifestations of injustice. She is the author of "<em>Imaging
the Great Puerto Rican Family</em>: <em>Framing Nation,
Race, and Gender during the American Century</em>" (2014).
Prof. Lloréns teaches anthropology at the University of Rhode
Island. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;">This event is co-sponsored by
the Gallery and a grant from the Rodenberry Foundation. </span></p>
