Environmental Justice: Catherine Coleman Flowers on America’s Sanitation Crisis

In our final week of the January recap series, we reflect on Catherine Coleman Flowers story, environmental justice activist, author, and one of the most powerful voices fighting for clean water and sanitation in the U.S. Catherine talks about “America’s dirty secret”: the lack of basic sanitation infrastructure in many rural communities, especially those that are Black, Indigenous, Latinx, and low-income. She shares her personal journey, what drives her work, and why access to clean water should be treated as a fundamental human right. She has testified before the UN and U.S. Congress, and in this conversation, she opens up about her mission, leadership lessons, and what’s next for her. Don’t miss it!
