Trash & Burn

The Story of Zulene Mayfield

Located in an affluent, majority white county, the city of Chester, Pennsylvania is mostly black and home to an unprecedented cluster of industrial polluting facilities. Trash & Burn follows one woman's decades long fight to stop the nation's largest trash incinerator from polluting her small town.
