Ten Years Too Long: Making the Flint Water Crisis Public Archive

Wednesday, July 10, 2024 - 12:00pm to 1:00pm
webinar

The Flint Water Crisis Public Archive aims to aid community leaders, researchers, and the general public in better understanding what happened during the Flint Water Crisis. Without our intervention, we risk losing access to documents released regarding the crisis, stripping us of the opportunity to learn about these important events and their ongoing implications for communities in Michigan and beyond. Panelists will include the project's founder, who will discuss the upcoming launch of the archive's online component, housed at the University of Iowa and University of Michigan-Flint.

Wednesday, July 10
Noon to 1 p.m. CST
Zoom ID: 972 5341 2234
