A Concerned Citizen: Civics in Action
A Concerned Citizen: Civics in Action
Dr. Riki Ott, is a whistleblower who predicted the Exxon Valdez oil spill hours before it happened. A toxicologist, author, and activist, Riki organized the Gulf coast communities to recover from the BP Deepwater Horizon disaster. She is also helping to spearhead the campaign with Ultimate Civics, one that will introduce a Constitutional amendment to end corporate personhood and to reform campaign finance and contributions. The film also follows how other citizens have also taken her example–to change and strengthen efforts at curbing oil pollution of America’s lands, rivers, and coastal waters.
