Environmental Racism Context Note
gary indiana has been w/o power for 11 days. gary indiana is 76% Black. yet another example of environmental racism, its so fucking disgusting. The power outage was caused by severe storms on August 11, 2026, affecting Northwest Indiana and Northeast Illinois. Restoration in Gary was further delayed after utility crews were shot at on August 14, temporarily pausing work. Do you find this helpful?
A screenshot of an X post claims that Gary, Indiana’s prolonged power outage is an example of environmental racism. The added context explains that severe storms caused the outage and that restoration was delayed after utility crews were shot at, undercutting the original claim with factual context. It is shared as an ironic reaction to misleading or race-baiting social media posts.
