Denny and Torm
We embark on an environmental justice tour of Richmond, CA with two Laotian community organizers.  Before Torm Nompraseurt managed to escape Laos, 13 members of his family had been killed, the U.S. had dropped 50 million tons of bombs on his country, defoliated the forests with agent orange, and he had been displaced 6 times. Torm moved to Richmond, CA to pursue the American Dream only to discover more than 350 toxic hotspots. Torm’s journey mirrors the creation of the Asian Pacific Environmental Network (APEN), where Denny Khamphanthong is the next generation of APEN organizer in Richmond. We visit with the Laotian community, see way too many toxic sites, talk about the struggles to afford to live in the community in which you were raised, understand the power of organizing everyday people and finish by seeing a soon to be opened youth climate resilience center called RYSE Commons!
