These stories show the struggle for clean, safe, running water across the country. Water is a basic human right. The struggle for water is posed against a corporate government and new laws that have as their goal the privatization of all that remains public. The only solution is public ownership of water and distribution of water to all who need it. This is part of the fight to get hold of the corporations before they take over all of America. – The People’s Tribune
