NO JUSTICE FOR AFRICANS IN FLINT

After millions of dollars have been spent since the first criminal investigations into the Flint water crisis were launched seven years ago in the US state of Michigan, all of the cases were closed 2 November. This means no one is being held criminally responsible for what happened to the predominantly African people who live in the city of Flint. That includes 115 deaths, as well as cognitive and growth delays in children. The court decision follows the Michigan Supreme Court’s rejection of efforts to revive charges against former Michigan Governor Rick Snyder.

African Stream's Salifu Mack shows us that what is happening in Flint is a microcosm of African people's struggle for water rights around the world.
