Insight from Mon Valley Residents & Community Members of
Clairton, Duquesne, and McKeesport
There is a strong sense shared by residents about the racial injustices they experience. Many people described experiencing or witnessing differential treatment between Black people or predominantly Black communities and white people or communities. Stereotypes and prejudices about Black people impact not just residents’ daily experiences, but the economic conditions of their communities. Residents point to examples such as hiring practices of large chain businesses that often exclude Black people and the lack of grocery stores in their majority-Black neighborhoods as compared to an abundance of food retail options in majority white communities.
