Explosive New Book Warns Toxic Peril to Black and Brown Communities in America

LOS ANGELES - EntSun -- "For weeks I stood at various street garbage dump sites and demanded that L.A. city officials clean up and clean out the garbage—and keep it clean. I made proposals for tough enforcement of the anti-dumping laws and the creation of a special task force to monitor and clean up immediately any dump piles. I demanded a shake-up in the Los Angeles Bureau of Sanitation which was tasked with garbage pick-up and removal."  Nothing! Says political analyst Earl Ofari Hutchinson

In his new book, The Garbaging of America, Hutchinson details his fight for safe and sanitary streets in L.A. and other cities. He assesses the health, safety, and environmental danger posed by the mounting garbage pile ups on city streets. He examines the laws and codes of enforcement. He tells why there is lax enforcement of the laws.
