Overview
Overview
In 2014, the residents of Flint, Michigan noticed that their water was a copper hue and smelled and tasted like sulfur. Some began using bottled water, but many of those who didn't started to experience rashes, hair loss, and a frightening, dehabilitating illness. Still, city officials claimed water tests were normal. It wasn't until nearly a year later when Flint resident Lee Ann Walters sent a water sample to the Environmental Protection Agency herself that the truth came out: the citizens of Flint where being poisoned by their own water supply.
Based on the authors' original reporting and featuring government documents, photographs, and, Poisoned Water is a riveting look at an alarming story of a government who turned away from its citizens--and the power of those same citizens who rose up to demand action.
