This week’s Earth Matters interview with David Miner is a blend of environmental and social issues.  Miner lived in Kent, Ohio when the Cuyahoga River caught on fire in 1968, and when four students were killed by the Ohio National Guard in 1970.  The discussion with Earth Matters co-producer Donna Stevens of the Upper Gila Watershed Alliance and David Miner takes us back to the events of the late 60s and early 70s.
