The Marshall Fire was a recent devastating tragedy. However, what about the people who have previously already been displaced by other factors, or who were being negatively affected, within their own homes, by the environment around them? In Episode 2 of Project Phoenix: Hazardous Housing, Michael Hufano and Areyana Proctor explore the social inequities that impact both housing and the environment, and which allow for certain people to either be displaced from their homes or face elements that are hazardous to their health and their surroundings. By including Geography professor Abby Hickcox in this conversation, along with Bruce Wiener and Joel Hayes, who are advocates for people who face unjust evictions, we explore how this problem plays out in Colorado neighborhoods.
