USA, Chicago, August 25, 2009. Amairani Galvan, 15, listens to her older sister Viviana explain a polymer factory's influence on the neighborhood. The Little Village Environmental Justice Organization, headquartered in a predominantly Mexican-American neighborhood of Chicago, campaigns not only against pollution but for clean power, park facilities, urban agriculture, and restoring public transit. LVEJO's staff and volunteers make significant outreach and education efforts, especially for youth. Photo for an HOY feature story by Jay Dunn.
