Screening of “Mountain Top Removal” December 13, 2009

This is a 2007 documentary film directed by Michael O’Connell. The film explores how strip mining in West Virginia has affected local communities. Filmed over a two-year period, Mountain Top Removal features community advocates, such as Ed Wiley, Larry Gibson, Julia Bonds, Maria Gunnoe, and Mountain Justice Summer volunteers, in their efforts to oppose the destruction of Southern Appalachia's natural landscape. Activist and grassroots organizer Sarah Seeds will lead our discussion on this black gold.
