Sinopse
For 22 years, politicians and businessmen pushed for the Adams Mine landfill as a solution to Ontario’s garbage disposal crisis. This plan to dump millions of tonnes of waste into the fractured pits of the Adams Mine prompted five separate civil resistance campaigns by a rural region of 35,000 in Northern Ontario.
Unlikely Radicals traces the compelling history of the First Nations people and farmers, environmentalists and miners, retirees and volunteers, Anglophones and Francophones who stood side by side to defend their community with mass demonstrations, blockades, and non-violent resistance.
Resumo da Crítica
“A timely and important book…reads like a political thriller.” (Our Times)
“I have practiced and taught community organizing all my life and I love this book. Angus — a key insider — tells the story with passion and respect. The detailed account and strategic analysis offered in Unlikely Radicals makes the book essential reading for anyone facing a similar struggle.” (Joan Kuyek, author of Unearthing Justice: How to Protect Your Community from the Mining Industry)
