Yeah but I still don’t see the connection between redlining and dumping a car in your own neighborhood park?

I get the first part. That seems separate from that article. The article itself says "environmental racism" and talks about abandoned cars.
I highly doubt racist people or people from NW are driving to SE to dump their cars in the woods. More likely people their dump their own cars in the woods and it has nothing to do with racism.
There is broken down cars littered through the woods in low income rural areas. The answer there is simple.

Has anyone every heard of Environmental Racism before? Is this just made up?
The people that dumped the cars in their own park are racist against themselves?

Data says that when crime goes above the the average of the the 7 years preceding than the last 7 years we can worry about it.
Any other increase is basically irrelevant.
