How to Sell a Poison - by Elena Conis (Hardcover)

The book "How to Sell a Poison" is a groundbreaking exposé that reveals the shocking truth about DDT's history and its devastating impact on communities of color.

This gripping narrative traces the surprising history of DDT in parallel to the story of a predominantly-Black town poisoned by a neighboring DDT plant, shedding light on the political machinations of Big Business that led to the ban.

The author, historian Elena Conis, argues that we've been missing the lesson of this cautionary tale and the harm caused by DDT is a symptom of a larger problem: the prioritization of profits over public health.

This book is a must-read for anyone interested in environmental justice, public health, and the dangers of corporate influence on government policies.

Don't miss out on this important work that will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about DDT and its impact on our world.
