520 |a Motivated by a deeply rooted sense of place and community, Appalachian women have long fought against the damaging effects of industrialization. In this collection of interviews, the author, a sociologist, presents the voices of twelve Central Appalachian women. These women are environmental justice activists fighting against mountaintop removal mining and its devastating effects on public health, regional ecology, and community well-being. Each woman narrates her own personal story of injustice and tells how that experience led her to activism. The interviews - a number of them illustrated by personal photographs - describe obstacles, lawsuits, and tragedies. But they also tell of new communities and personal transformations catalyzed through activism. As protectors, these women challenge dominant Appalachian gender expectations and guard not only their families, but also their homeplaces, their communities, their heritage, and the endangered mountains that surround them.
