To deny water is to deny life.
Join author Miguel A. De La Torre and contributors to Gonna Trouble the Water as they discuss the sacred nature of water and the ways it is weaponized against non-white communities. Gonna Trouble the Water: Ecojustice, Water, and Environmental Racism de-centers “water as commodity” and centers the dignity of water and its life-giving character.

Currently, the transcriptions do not support multiple languages at a time, so some words will be transcribed phonetically. Closed captions are not 100% accurate, so please forgive any inaccurate transcriptions.
