To deny water is to deny life.
Gonna Trouble the Water considers the sacred nature of water and the ways in which it is weaponized against non-white communities. With compelling contributions from scholars and activists, politicians and theologians, Gonna Trouble the Water de-centers the concept of water as a commodity in order to center the dignity of water and its life-giving character. Firmly grounded at the intersection of environmentalism and racism, “Gonna Trouble the Water” makes clear the message: to deny water is to deny life.
With compelling contributions from scholars and activists, politicians and theologians–including former Colorado governor Bill Ritter, global academic law professor Ved P. Nanda, Detroit-based activist Michelle Andrea Martinez, and many more–Gonna Trouble the Water de-centers the concept of water as a commodity in order to center the dignity of water and its life-giving character.
