Documentary which examines four rural communities across the United States which were chosen as sites for hazardous waste facilities. The four towns are: Kettleman, a Mexican-American community; North Carolina Cherokee reservation; Sparta, Georgia, an African-American community; and Lawrence County, Kentucky, in the Appalachians. The program uncovers approaches of the waste trade, and process by which low-income communities and people of color live near a disproportionate share of contaminating waste facilities.|DISPOSABLE HOMEPLACE / produced by Dan Jeffee. – Documentary which examines four rural communities across the United States which were chosen as sites for hazardous waste facilities.
