DESCRIPTION:Friends of Appalachia presents: "Razing Appalachia" documentary\n\nOpen 
 7:30 Video 8:00 Discussion 9:00\n\nIn the misty folds of the Appalachian 
 mountains lies Pigeonroost Hollow, in Blair, West Virginia. With its narrow 
 creek and crawdads, its wild ginseng and raccoons, Pigeonroost looks as it 
 might have a century ago -- a woody haven tucked away from time and 
 technology. But for how long? And at what price?  In May 1998, Arch Coal, 
 Inc. announced it would expand its Dal-Tex strip mine just above the small 
 town of Blair. But lifetime residents said too many had already been bought 
 out or chased away by the giant mine, and that Arch Coal's planned 
 expansion was the final threat to their once-tranquil way of life. Forty 
 families -- where there were once 300 -- stayed in Blair.\n\nRAZING 
 APPALACHIA is the story of their remarkable fight -- against the 
 second-largest coal company in America, against the know-nothing state 
 political leaders and, unhappily, against the 400 union miners whose jobs 
 were on the line.\n\nPlug in event to Bank of America's Coal Investment Day 
 of Action on Aug 31\n\nWHAT: film screening "Razing Appalachia" Mountaintop
