“Environmental justice is fundamentally about people, and this beautifully rendered graphic novel captures the human relationships and communities involved in a chemical catastrophe that spans generations. At a time when we too often take food security and safety for granted, this novel weaves together the true story of dangerous chemical residues from insecticides with colorful graphic panels, reminding us to ask questions and fight for global environmental justice.” —Dr. Jessica L.
