Russia, Rockwool and Joe Manchin

from Make It Plain MIP with Rev. Mark Thompson · host Make It Plain MIP with Rev. Mark Thompson

In West Virginia, Rockwool, a factory that produces insulation, is polluting the air and water, causing cancer and asthma, and stands atop an historic African American burial ground with its billowing 21story smoke stacks within blocks of four schools and two daycares. Rockwool, also, still has four factories operating in Russia in contravention of the current sanctions. And Joe Manchin knows all about Rockwool, yet is silent. Longtime activists Stewart Acuff, Ruth Hatcher, scientist Dr. Catherine Jozwick, apiarist (bee farmer) Jennifer King and cattle farmer Susannah Buckles tell the Rockwool story while on the Poor People's Campaign Moral March on West Virginia.For more info. www.toxicrockwool.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
