September 24, 2015 – Segment 3
It’s a brand new episode of Sound Bites, where we’ll listen to the first part of a town hall meeting I moderated last week in Princess Anne, Maryland called “A Game of Chicken?” We met at the University of Maryland Eastern Shore to discuss poultry industry expansion, community health and local control, and hear how concerned residents in the Delmarva region are organizing to keep their rural communities and local waterways healthy.
Our panelists included: Dr. Jillian Fry from the Johns Hopkins University Center for a Livable Future; Dr. Kirkland Hall, a long-time member of Somerset County’s NAACP branch and the UMES chapter adviser; Maria Payan, consultant with Socially Responsible Agriculture Project and with the Assateague Coastal Trust; and Backbone Corridor Neighbors Association spokesperson Lisa Inzerillo. This conversation was presented by the Assateague Coastal Trust and the Assateague Coastkeeper.
