A movie about Oscoda Michigan!!! PFAS - No Defense

More praise for the critically acclaimed film documentary No Defense, which is now available on iTunes and Google Play:

A new film directed by another daring young woman, Sara Ganim, shows a story similar to the city of Flint, and of Hinkley, and of Robert Bilott’s Dark Waters in Parkersburg, West Virginia. Only this time it isn’t only our corporations and government technocrats at fault—it’s our supposed “security forces.”
Sara Ganim calls her movie: No Defense. Focused on Oscoda, Michigan, a small town near a now-closed Air Force base, the poisoning isn’t from lead or the chromium-6 of Hinkley. It’s more PFAS (per- and poly-fluoro-alkyl substances)—the same stuff that sickened and dirtied Dark Water. The U.S. Dept. of Defense (DoD) is the biggest, most dangerous culprit. You will love the people you meet in Ganim’s remarkable documentary, who stand up to power. You’ll also learn there is much more to do, and friends to do it with, same as Brockovich shows us in her book sans Superman. What No Defense makes clear is that PFAS aren’t restricted to just one area. The DoD is in the process of poisoning groundwater near you because—with 700 locations of old and active military bases in the U.S., and 800 more overseas—like a virus, its water is spreading a toxic pandemic. As Toni Morrison once said so beautifully, “All water has a perfect memory and is forever trying to get back to where it was.
