Join us for a conversation with Charles Utley, an environmental justice activist with Blue Ridge Environmental Defense Fund!
Rev Charles Utley grew up in Hyde park, a predominantly Black community adjacent to the predominantly white neighborhood of Piedmont. In the mid-1970s, after Charles had taken over his mother’s role as Community President, he found out about contamination in this industrial area of Augusta, GA by Southern Piedmont Wood Co. Both Piedmont and Hyde Park residents were employees at this site and suffered from the health effects, but while Piedmont received the help of the Superfund program for cleaning up their neighborhood, Hyde Park residents are still fighting for relocation today.

Join us for a Living Room Leadership conversation with Olinka Green, a local activist in Dallas, TX fighting for the clean up of Lane Plating’s Superfund site!
In 2018, Olinka discovered that there is a Superfund site only a few blocks from her home. Although the EPA had been investigating the site since 2015, Olinka had never heard anything about it, and she soon learned that neither had many of her fellow community members. Using deep experience she had in previous social justice work, and banding together with other neighbors, Olinka began to fight to improve communication between the EPA and the community and to achieve a full clean-up of this site.

Join us for a conversation with Gillian Graber, the cofounder and president of Protect PT, a community organization working for security, safety, and quality of life for people in Penn Township!
In 2014, Gillian Graber received a letter from an environmental monitoring group warning her about a proposal to frack for shale-gas in her neighborhood. She knew she had to take action. In just a few short years, by talking with neighbors and organizing with fellow community members, Gillian went from stay-at-home mom to a full-time organizer. What started as a fight against fracking in her community has grown to encompass more initiatives over time. Today, Protect PT’s most recent focus is a fight against a local Injection Well that is threatening the safety of drinking water in the area.

Join us for a conversation with Lee Ann Smith, a local leader in her community in Asheville, North Carolina!
When Lee Ann Smith’s 11-year-old son was diagnosed with a rare form of thyroid cancer, her primary focus became helping him get better. But a few years after the initial diagnosis, she began digging into it more. What she uncovered was an environmental mess responsible for a public health crisis. She discovered that contaminants were reported at an upstream site within a mile of her home, and that several other community members had also been diagnosed with lymphoma and various kinds of cancer.

Join us for a Living Room Leadership conversation with Darryl Malek-Wiley, an environmental activist with over 30 years of experience!
“Cancer Alley” is an 85 mile stretch along the Mississippi River that got its name from the many industrial plants that have caused severe health issues among surrounding residents. Since his arrival in New Orleans nearly 30 years ago, Darryl Malek-Wiley has been fighting alongside the primarily African-American, low income communities affected by “Cancer Alley” for clean water, air, and land, and to prevent more industrial plants from being built. His most recent projects include working with community groups in St. James & St. John the Baptist Parishes to stop the proposed Formosa Plastics Complex, another industrial plant that would add to the cluster in Cancer Alley.

Join us for a Living Room Leadership conversation with Melissa Mays, an activist with Water You Fighting For in Flint, MI.
The Flint water crisis began in April 2014 when the city of Flint, MI switched its municipal water source to the Flint River to save money. Residents began noticing the horrid colors and smells coming from the water running in their homes. The water people were drinking, bathing in, and using every day caused Melissa Mays’ family, and other Flint residents, to develop rashes and begin losing hair. Melissa developed seizures and a respiratory infection, became antinuclear antibodies (ANA) positive, and her liver began to fail. Flint water is contaminated with lead, E. coli, total trihalomethanes (TTHMs), copper, and many other heavy metals.

Join us for a Living Room Leadership conversation with Andrea Amico, the Co-Founder of Testing for Pease in New Hampshire.
In May 2014, Andrea Amico became an activist after reading about the high level of contamination in a well which supplied drinking water to the Pease International Tradeport, located in Portsmouth, NH. Previously, the Tradeport was an Air Force Base, now, it is a booming business park. Because her children attended daycare and her husband worked at the Tradeport, they were among those who were drinking PFAS contaminated water every day.

Join us for a Living Room Leadership conversation with Charlie Powell, an environmental justice activist from Birmingham, Alabama who has been working on getting his community relocated since 2012 from a facility that produces high grade coke for industrial furnaces.
Coke production is notoriously dirty, and the emissions produced are dangerous to inhale: it’s created by essentially baking coal. If a facility doesn’t have proper scrubbers and air purification technologies installed, exposure to emissions can result in cancer.
