Description

Residents in the Boxton, TN  have been raising serious concerns about pollution linked to the nearby xAI data center for months. Activist and experts also have identified it as a clear case of environmental racism. Community members report increased air pollution, in a town which is disproportionately low-income and predominantly minority. Many have argued that the facility would not have been placed in a more affluent area, and they’re demanding greater oversight, transparency, and environmental protections. This is not an anomaly as cases like this are across the US and neighborhoods reflecting Boxton.
