| Zusammenfassung: | When Carrie Dickerson first saw a newspaper headline about the electric company's plans to build a nuclear power plant near her home in Oklahoma, she knew little about nuclear reactors and less about the legal process through which they were built and operated. She wanted to learn more, so she asked the Atomic Energy Commission to send her all the information they had on nuclear energy. The stacks of documents she received and read over the next few months turned her vague worry about nuclear power into certainty and determination. She would fight to stop the Black Fox plant with all the resources she had. Here is Aunt Carrie's fascinating account of a nine-year battle in hearing rooms, the news media, and sometimes even the streets, to stop Black Fox's construction. Before it was over, this war would cost her and her husband Robert their entire savings, their nursing home, and almost the family farm. When the money ran out, she took up quilting to raise more. Her story is inspiring and honest, revealing the triumphs as well as the hardships, the public skirmishes as well as the battles against hatred, fear, and discouragement in her own heart. As she fought and won these battles, hundreds of people rallied around her, farm folks, housewives, celebrities, Native Americans, activists and quiet citizens. In telling her story for the first time, Carrie brings a message of hope. In her quiet way, she also issues a call for awareness and responsible action, which is, she believes, every citizen's responsibility.--Publisher description |
