There are a number of persons and organizations we wish to thank for making this book possible. We are especially grateful to Carl Anthony of the Ford Foundation, which provided financial support for the Environmental Justice Resource Centers race, smart growth, and regional equity work. A hearty thanks is extended to Deeohn Ferris, executive director of Global Environmental Resources, Inc., who assisted in organizing the hectic schedules of some extremely busy people, numerous conference calls, and face-to-face meetings of the African American Forum on Race and Regionalism (AAFRR).
I want to thank my staff at the Environmental Justice Resource Center, Lisa Sutton, and Michele Dawkins, for their assistance in organizing the authors /scholars roundtable and making sure the authors received their honoraria in a reasonable time. Thanks go out to my colleagues Glenn S. Johnson and Angel O. Torres, who read the manuscript and assisted in editing. I am also grateful for the contributions of my colleagues from across the country who took time out of their busy schedules to participate in the meetings, prepare and present their papers, and endure the constant nagging about deadlines. Finally, our hats go off to Alan McClare at Rowman & Littlefield for his patience and hard work in bringing this project to completion.
