    This community has already faced structural racism and disinvestment. A two-week blackout unleashed a humanitarian disaster.

    (. . .)

    The power is finally coming back on in Gary, though when I visited hundreds were still without. Stories are unearthing about the squalid—and sometimes dangerous—conditions that residents were forced to endure during outages that lasted up to two weeks.

    About 80 percent of Gary’s 69,000 residents are Black, and around a third live in poverty, the result of more than half a century of deindustrialization, disinvestment, racial segregation, and bank redlining.

    The crisis, and the slow pace of power restoration, has shone a light on institutional neglect of this community, made worse by human-made climate change. Studies show that the tornadoes, thunderstorms, flooding, and heavy winds that tore through Northwest Indiana starting on August 11 will grow more frequent and severe as global temperatures warm."
