‘Still Ill from the BP Spill’2011-09-07 Advocacy Officers Mary Beth Gallagher and Salvador Sarmiento with former intern Lisa Lederberger recently co-wrote a short article, 'Still Ill from the BP Spill,' to address the ongoing health impact of the 2010 BP oil drilling disaster. In June 2010 and 2011, the Robert F. Kennedy Center for Justice and Human Rights led delegations to Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama, hosted by 2005 RFK Human Rights Award Laureate Stephen Bradberry, to meet with Gulf Coast residents affected by the spill. |
