Description
Own a piece of history!
This original t-shirt (dug up from Lois Gibbs' attic) was worn during a Love Canal protest -- the community battle that was heard round the world!
Child-sized.
Love Canal is one of the most notorious environmental scandals in the world.
As children playing outside began coming home with burned hands and feet, and alarming numbers of neighbors contracted mysterious diseases, residents of Love Canal discovered that their town was built next to 20,000 tons of leaking chemical waste.
Residents of Love Canal organized their blue-collar town and won a colossal 2-year battle against a multi-billion dollar corporation and the local, state and federal governments.
