The Crisis In Water Safety In Benton Harbor Michigan

 

Hello Friends, Family,  and Associates,

The water crisis in Benton Harbor Michigan is an ongoing issue affecting the lives of many and that of a predominantly African-American community that is still fighting for the right to have clean water.

This article is to continue to bring light to this issue and to give support to people who need the support, Now!

Here is a link to what has been seen on a TV station if you have not already seen it.  Do give support to Rev. Edward Pinkney.   he has a Go Fund Me page.

Echoes of Flint: Lead in Benton Harbor water must be addressed right away, outraged residents say (nbcnews.com)

Thank you for visiting this page and thank you for your support.  Sharing with social media will also be of great help.  Write a letter to your congressman and write a letter to Rev. Pinkney to let him know of your support.   Give what you can to the Go Fund Me page that is up as it will help to keep the information in for forefront of this very serious issue.

I will speak more about lead poisoning and lead in water.

Truly this issue should help in President Biden wanting to pass the Infrastructure Bill to help solve this problem all around our country.

Take matters of water safety into your own hands by getting your own water tested.   There are free kits in places like Home Depot and online for you to seek to get one done.  You might want to find out what else is in your water.

Really, no one should have lead in you drinking water or any other kind of water you use on a daily basis.  If buying water, look for the bottles that have the word “spring” on the label.  Springwater is the best water for drinking from what was reported to me by herbalist and others who are researchers of healthy drinking water.
