During this day of reflection, consider reading Dr. King&#8217;s &#8220;I Have a Dream Speech&#8221; or listening to it here. At Beyond Pesticides, our vision and work aligns with the vision Dr. King expressed\u2014&#8220;Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.&#8221; To that end, we seek to eliminate disproportionate risk, with elevated toxic hazards to people of color communities, with higher rates of pesticide-induced diseases among those who live in fenceline communities where chemicals are produced, among farmworkers who harvest the nation&#8217;s food, and among landscapers who manage our parks and children&#8217;s playing fields. We seek to transform national laws that allow risks under risk assessments that institutionalize environmental racism by allowing for this disproportionate risk. We seek to eliminate toxic pesticides production and use through the adoption of organic land management. To that end, we work with communities across the country to transition their land management to organic practices and we advance organic standards under the Organic Foods Production Act that have integrity and are fully enforced.
