Q&A with Catherine Coleman Flowers
Catherine Coleman Flowers
In her new book “Waste: One Woman’s Fight Against America’s Dirty Secret,” Catherine Coleman Flowers refuses to conceal the toxic reality of environmental injustice in the U.S. She experienced it first-hand in her home of Lowndes County just down the road from Selma, Alabama where families’ health and safety is endangered by inadequate sanitation infrastructure. It’s a problem felt in America’s “Black Belt” as well as other rural communities around the country.
But Flowers also refuses to conceal her hope. Bringing light to a largely invisible issue, the truth-teller mobilizes communities, churches and policymakers to take action. In Flowers’ journey from a young civil rights activist to a seasoned environmental justice advocate, her fellow Christians will recognize a divine calling.

The Sara Holcomb house, built in 1898, was purchased by the county recently and will likely be torn down.
The rear of the Sara Holcomb house, 110 E. Elm St., shows the dilapidation of the structure.
Yadkin County government officials have completed the purchase of the Sara Holcomb house at 110 E. Elm St. in Yadkinville, which is at the intersection with Jackson Street and across from the courthouse.
The house was purchased for $128,000 from the heirs of Sara Holcomb, who passed away in 2013 at the age of 103 and was a longtime teacher in Yadkin County.
As we seek to grow resilient communities, let’s look to the forest for wisdom

Today is Arbor Day in the U.S. a tree-planting and tree-honoring tradition that began nearly 150 years ago. Throughout history, humans have recognized trees as pillars of strength. They provide the oxygen, nourishment, and resources for life on earth.
But the secret to trees’ strength isn’t simply that they’re the largest and longest-living plants on the planet. They have managed to survive crisis while helping other creatures to do the same because they’re literally rooted in community. Today, as our planet faces countless crises, trees have much to teach us.
