Flint Residents

Flint residents are people who live in Flint, Michigan, a city that faced a major public health crisis when its tap water became contaminated with lead. This situation arose when the city switched its water source and failed to treat the water properly, causing lead and other toxins to leach into the water supply. As a result, many residents experienced health problems, especially children’s development issues. The residents have shown resilience and activism, advocating for justice, infrastructure improvements, and government accountability to ensure safe water and better living conditions.
