In Focus: ACAT Film Screening

Alaska Community Action on Toxics (ACAT) Environmental Health Program Director, Dr. Samarys Seguinot Medina, addresses the multi-dimensional issue of environmental justice and injustice, and shares information about Thursday's screening of the film Mossville: When Great Trees Fall, an award-winning documentary that tells the story of a once-thriving Black community in Louisiana, now uprooted by the petrochemical industry. She reminds us that Alaskans are not immune from similar events.
