Poisoned Water | Book Club with N'Dea Irvin-Choy

187: Poisoned Water: How The Citizens of Flint, Michigan, Fought For Their Lives and Warned the Nation is a powerful, personable reflection on one of the biggest public health failures in modern American history. We're reading this month with N'Dea Irvin-Choy of @bmekween - she is a PhD candidate in biomedical engineering, a superstar content creator, and an avid reader. We discuss the series of unfortunate events that led to the Flint Water Crisis, the power of self-advocacy and community organizing, and the citizen stories that impacted us. Thanks to our sponsor!
