Flint

It has been four years since a state appointed emergency manager switched Flint’s water source to the Flint River, resulting in lead-tainted drinking water. A public health emergency was declared in the city of nearly 100,000 and criminal charges were brought against several state and local officials. So where do things stand today? Flint mayor Karen Weaver brings us up to date. Ep 4624/Seg 1
