Mountain Strip by Blane De St. Croix - final week - MEET LARRY GIBSON

Posted by bwgallery
MOUNTAIN TOP REMOVAL (MTR) is the most controversial coal mining practice.

Meet LARRY GIBSON, one of the leaders in the fight against MTR.
Larry was honored by CNN when he was named a CNN Hero. He has also been featured in National Geographic Magazine, O Magazine, Vanity Fair, New York Times, and several recently released documentary films including, Coal Country, Burning the Future, Mountain Mourning, and Mountaintop Removal. A recently released book, Bringing Down the Mountain, tells us even more of Larry's important role in this fight. He works tirelessly to raise awareness about the destruction in Appalachia and to light a fire in our bellies to stop mountaintop removal. Larry continues to speak at countless universities and conferences, and he has hosted thousands of people to see Kayford Mountain over the past 20 years.
