My Story: Vickie Simmons, out of sight, out of mind community of color

Vickie Simmons lives on the Moapa Reservation in Nevada, not far from Las Vegas. Here, she talks about the impacts that a nearby coal mine has had on her and her family. The Land I Trust is a storytelling project brought to you by the Sierra Club. In season two, we travel through the American West to talk with folks about the dirty energy projects that threaten their homes and the work they’re doing to build a clean energy economy that allows all of our communities to thrive.
