Call 911: Workers In Peril at Ground Zero!

with

Joel Kupferman, Exec Dir, N.Y. Environmental Law and

Justice Project

Dr. Jacqueline Moline, Director of the World Trade Center

Monitoring & Treatment Program at Mt. Sinai Medical Center.

Recent attention has focused on the struggle to get care & compensation

for the nearly 40,000 hitherto forgotten workers who labored on the WTC

cleanup under unsafe working conditions. After years of protests, some of

their concerns are now being met. But still out the public view are the

concerns of residents, students, and employees in the WTC area who

were exposed to poisonous air toxins when they were prematurely

encouraged to return.

Despite the Billions of Dollars in disaster relief granted to N.Y.C. by the

Federal Government, the working victims of the WTC disaster were

left to fend for themselves proving once again that disaster capitalism

takes care of the moguls first. Exploitation and callousness in the

redevelopment of the site has led to one of the worst occupational

disasters in American history.
