@AmExperiencePBS @PBS I had never heard about #LOVECANAL. These women were relentless in how they worked with the govt and navigated the tragedy and its impact from a health, race and environmental standpoint. Well done! #EarthDay2024 #EPA
This was phenomenal. I HIGHLY recommend watching.

The environmental disaster at Love Canal is a powerful example of how everyday citizens can become scientists! Do their own research, ask questions, demand answers #PoisonedGroundPBS @AmExperiencePBS
This is a very thorough, very fascinating look at the Love Canal disaster… The survivors who turned activists and campaigned to help their entire community are heroes, imo… Really great work on this doc, PBS! 👍

@notorioushilary @AmExperiencePBS It's the recent past - we are just shy of the 50th anniversary. Many of the families were in their 20s. #PoisonedGroundPBS
Lois Gibbs and all of the women who forced themselves to be out front of the Love Canal tragedy are incredible. "Almost everyone fighting to escape was a woman, almost everyone in power was a man... This was a sincere desire to protect their children."
Watching this. Riveting, illuminating
Unsatisfied with the government’s response, residents formed the Love Canal Homeowners Association—and elected Lois Gibbs as president. 📸: University Archives, University at Buffalo, State University of New York #PoisonedGroundPBS
It's so painfully easy to take the environment for granted. The story of Love Canal shows how chemical plants' "disposal" of waste literally killed the land, animals, and people #PoisonedGroundPBS @AmExperiencePBS
This Love Canal documentary on @AmExperiencePBS is a must watch. Interesting and instructive for our time as well. #poisonedgroundpbs

@AmExperiencePBS The tragic irony of the name #LoveCanal doesn't escape me. #PoisonedGroundPBS
@AmExperiencePBS Griffin Manor originally housed WWII chemical workers. #PoisonedGroundPBS
@RichOnOWN @AmExperiencePBS It was named after a 19th century entrepreneur named William Love. He wanted to generate electricity by linking the falls with the river.
Now on KET: @AmExperiencePBS: Revisit the 1970s Love Canal disaster and how the battle for justice, led mostly by women, created the basis for the federal Superfund program.
