Abstract
This perspective reflects upon the struggle of Sajida Khan, an environmental activist based in Durban, South Africa, who dedicated her life to fight international corporations and local municipalities on the pollution and environmental degradation of her community. Khan's battle is then linked to ecofeminist theory and international feminist, anti-capitalist struggles. The paper ends with an interview of Khan about her views on environmental justice and possible ways forward to create healthier livelihoods.
