Host Don Fitz and guests Joyce McCowan and Rev. Elston K. McCowan compare lead problems in rural Missouri and inner cities. They look at corporations and governments which blame the victims of lead poisoning and how citizens are often not told of how dangerous an area can be. This Green Time (No. 327) includes the first part of Will Godar’s film “Unleaded.” It is produced by the Gateway Greens in conjunction with KDHX. Call 314-727-8554 or contact fitzdon
