解説
Since the beginning of the twentieth century, communities in the Downriver region of the Detroit River have forged an enduring claim to the well-being of waterways that are central to where they live, work, and play.
Lisa M. Fine examines important moments in the ongoing efforts of the area's citizens to create a humane and habitable environment. Her analysis shows how people preserved wetlands and the river by working through sportsmen's organizations, appealing to state agencies, and forming grassroots movements. Fueled by enduring connections to place, local unions fought a proposed nuclear power plant in the 1950s. Years later, steel workers facing the steamroller of deindustrialization tried to preserve their communities by purchasing their own company. The ties that bind gave a unique character to activism in the Downriver region, challenging stereotypes of working-class attitudes toward the environment.
A creative merger of labor and environmental history, Downriver Detroit shows that working people have a right to live in and protect the places they love.
