People for Community Recovery offers toxic tours of the Lake Calumet Industrial Area, located on the southeast side of Chicago. The Toxic Tours explore the surrounding landfills, industrial facilities, waterways, and the proximity of residential communities to this area. 



The late Hazel Johnson, the Mother of the Environmental Justice Movement labelled this area the “toxic doughnut,” a name which gained widespread notoriety and shed light on the connection between industrial pollution and negative health outcomes in minority communities.
