Our news is filled with protests, some of it is “good trouble”.
There was a protest that took place in Oklahoma in the seventies, led by activist Carrie Dickerson, which resulted in the cancellation of the proposed Black Fox Nuclear Power Plant, near Inola, Oklahoma.
In our library of oral histories, we have the Carrie Dickerson story as told by her daughter, Patricia Lemon, for VoicesofOklahoma.com
It all started when Carrie saw a newspaper headline, in 1973, about the Public Service Company of Oklahoma announcing plans to build the Black Fox Nuclear power plant.
This is a profile in courage story! Individuals can make a difference!
