MISSISSIPPI BORN DELTA RAISED: Conversations about the people, the culture, and the challenges facing the MS Delta

Society & Culture


Doctor Paula King's presentation over six years ago to my class at the Emory University Rollins School of Public Health about the the "Flint Water Crisis," made me start to think about the brown water that I drank growing up in Greenville, Mississippi, and to question whether me or my peers had been harmed by the brown water that we had been drinking for years. In this episode of Mississippi Born Delta Raised, I am here with Stephanie Showalter Otts, the Executive Director of the National Sea Grant Law Center and the Mississippi Alabama Sea Grant Legal Program at the University of Mississippi School of Law to discuss the possibility of lead in water in the Mississippi Delta.
