Listen "The Toxic Tour"
Episode Synopsis
Join us on a profoundly personal odyssey as we journey down to Sampson County, NC, navigating its roads and histories on a 'toxic tour' of environmental injustice. Feel the palpable echoes of Jim Crow as we witness firsthand the struggles of its predominantly Black residents against the backdrop of landfills, hog farms, and a looming gas treatment plant. Through intimate encounters and shared stories, we uncover the enduring spirit of a community fighting for safety and equity, generation after generation.Southern Gumption is hosted by Andy Li (he/him/they/them), presented by Southern Coalition for Social Justice, and produced by Earfluence.
