The image and caption document well how toxics and environmental risks have specific histories and will have specific situated futures according to the political and cultural economy of the area in which they are materially found. The caption explains this at great length with reference to Austin.
The image and caption are excellent visual representations of the issue at hand. However, it could be improved if I am being picky. For example, the yellow writing is a bit jarring. I wonder if the colours could be tweaked to make it more presentable, unless they were chosen for a specific reason. Again, a picky comment. The overall artificat is brilliant.
The author created this image to visually represent the racial geography of environmental risk in Austin. The aesthetic is rather plain but should compliment the other pictures in the photo essay.
The caption of this image is very detailed and explains well the visualisation. It draws attention to the history of the area and how this plays into the ways in which people experience toxicity today. I think it explains everything well. I would, however, tend to avoid referencing in captions like this. Could the point be made without having to reference other people's work like this?
The visualisation and caption reveal how toxics are unequally distributed in urban spaces according to racial geographies of segregation. It hows how environmental risks disproportionately affect people living in Austin based on a racial geography dating back to the early 20th century.
