In the Seacoast region of New Hampshire, the Coakley Landfill Superfund Site, the Pease Air Force Base, and other industrial locations are leaking perfluorinated chemicals (PFCs) and trichloroethylene (TCEs). The region’s water is threatened by these toxins, and community members are coming together to learn what they can do about it.
As part of their organizing and education, Mindful Mondays is hosting We the People 2.0 – The Second American Revolution. CELDF’s Michelle Sanborn is participating in the Q & A after the screening. She will share CELDF’s rights-based organizing strategy, the New Hampshire Community Rights Network’s organizing goals, and how local residents can protect their water and the rights of nature.
Following up the screening, in October, attendees and other community members are invited to attend the Community Rights Awareness Workshop.
