Editing Environmental racism (section)

==== Haiti ====
Legacies of racism exist in Haiti, and affect the way that food grown by peasants domestically is viewed compared to foreign food.<ref>{{cite journal|last=Steckley|first=Marylynn|date=September 2016|title=Eating up the social ladder: the problem of dietary aspirations for food sovereignty|url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/s10460-015-9622-y|journal=Agriculture and Human Values|language=en|volume=33|issue=3|pages=549–562|doi=10.1007/s10460-015-9622-y|issn=0889-048X|s2cid=141759179}}</ref> Racially coded hierarchies are associated with food that differs in origin – survey respondents reported that food such as millet and root crops are associated with negative connotations, while foreign-made food such as corn flakes and spaghetti are associated with positive connotations. This reliance on imports over domestic products reveals how racism ties to commercial tendencies – a reliance on imports can increase costs, fossil fuel emissions, and further social inequality as local farmers loose business.
