Summary:
Learn how the rural community of Warren County, North Carolina, mobilized to fight the state's plans to place a toxic landfill in their town. This landmark action, the first to articulate the concepts of environmental racism and environmental justice, brought together civil rights activists and environmentalists to fight for a common goal. 40 years later, the activists convene to pass the torch to the next generation of environmental justice activists.
