African American Environmentalist Association
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The African American Environmentalist Association is a private, public interest group focusing on environmental issues. Its stated aims include protecting the environment, enhancing human, animal and plant ecologies, promoting the efficient use of natural resources and increasing African American participation in the environmental movement.
AAEA describes itself as "aggressively non-partisan". It has supported Republican policy positions, and particularly those of President George W. Bush on such issues as stem cell research, nuclear power and the handling of Hurricane Katrina, but has also expressed support for Democrats including Joseph Lieberman and Hillary Clinton.
The group was founded by Norris McDonald who remains its president.
