One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

volunteering on big mountain in arizonia and staying with a dine (navajo) family. a girl around my age showed me how the coal mine was stealing all of thier ground water that they rely on for survival, for the first time in my life i realized the connection between culture and the envirnment and have commited my life to radical enviromentalism ever since....
