DESCRIPTION:Mine War On Blackberry Creek  (28:30) (1986)\nBy Anne Lewis \nMine War on 
 Blackberry Creek reports on the long and bitter United Mine Workers of 
 America strike in 1984 against A.T. Massey, America’s fourth largest coal 
 company with corporate ties to apartheid South Africa. While strikebreakers 
 work inside the mines and security men with guard dogs and cameras patrol 
 the compound, miners on the picket lines detail the history of labor 
 struggles in the region and their determination to hold out until victory.  
 http://www.annelewis.org\n\nCoal Country  (85 min.) (2009) \nBy Phyllis 
 Geller\nPassions are running high in the mountains of Appalachia. Families 
 and communities are deeply split over what is being done to their land by 
 the latest form of strip mining called mountaintop removal, or MTR. Coal 
 companies blast the tops off mountains and run the debris into valleys and 
 streams, filling air and water with chemicals, and an ancient mountain 
 range is disappearing forever. The communities are destroyed by coal 
 companies including Massey Energy that are anti-labor and only interested 
 in getting profits from the coal despite the costs to the community. Link 
 to website for the Coal Country movie.
