Having played in the infamous Coldwater creek duribg the 1970s and then raising my children in the same area, I’m trying to deal with my anger at the fact that pour own government has known about the toxic waste products spread all over st louis, north st louis county, st charles, weldon springs since the 1940s but decided not to inform the people living there. Our own government officials Lying and downplaying the impact on the environment and people living there. The documents have started to be released in the past 20 yrs and the legacy of deceit continues today. In the late 1980s-early 1900s I took my children to the annual Valley of flowers festival. The bridge from parking area to festival grounds was being replaced and lines of people were walking on rocks and in the waters to get accross. Heavy equipment operators were working within eye site wearing hazmat suits. Why did our elected officials hide this??? I’ve watched several family members, friends, neighbors suffer and die from cancer. Everyone I know from home has autoimmune diseases,our children are being diagnosed now. I have found 3 Doctors in stlouis area who are addressing the health issues associated with long term exposure issues. When I bring it up to my many physicians outside of st louis I feel like Im being gaslighted. Finally seeing how simular other peoples health stories on a Facebook website I know most of my health issues aren’t because “I have to take better care of myself”.

History definitely can repeat itself if we don’t address issues on behalf of folks who do not want to address them or are simply scared to do so. Mediators are often necessary. Kudos. Good article.
