A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
The scenes have been reminiscent of a natural disaster or of an impoverished emerging nation. Despite appearances, the residents of Flint, Mich., have been suffering from a different type of crisis. They found themselves without household access to a basic necessity that, up until earlier this year, virtually everyone took for granted in the United States. But the situation in Flint needs to be, for all of us, a wake‐up call to the larger economic and political issues that led to the tragedy.
