Months after a catastrophic Norfolk Southern train derailment changed their lives and communities forever, residents of East Palestine, Ohio, and the surrounding area feel “numb,” lied to, and abandoned… and they’re running out of drinkable water. We cannot forget about them. On Tues, May 30, from 7-8:30pm EST, TRNN Editor-in-Chief Maximillian Alvarez will host a solidarity livestream and pledge drive to raise money and secure much-needed supplies for residents living in and around East Palestine. We will speak directly with residents living in and around East Palestine about what they and their families are going through, what assistance they are (or are not) receiving from the government and from Norfolk Southern, and what we can all do to help. Join us, and help us spread the word! Fundraiser and information links: GoFundMe: East Palestine Off The Rails!: GoFundMe: Start over.
