The DuPont corporation revolutionized home cooking with Teflon's non-stick cookware and its key chemical ingredient, C8—now found in the bloodstream of 99 per cent of Americans. While concealing knowledge about C8's harmful effects, DuPont contaminated the environment with chemical waste, failed to warn their employees about health risks and continued marketing Teflon products as safe. But when two DuPont employees gave birth to babies with similar severe medical conditions, a local farmer lost his livelihood with the death of his cattle and West Virginian residents witnessed their children's teeth turning black, the corporation's secret could no longer be contained. In a class-action lawsuit that led to a landmark decision, residents learned the true extent of the irreversible damage DuPont caused. Watch this horrifying lesson on the depths of corporate greed and hear from the individuals who, despite being gravely impacted, refused to go down without a fight. Nataleah Hunter-Young
