People are gathering in cities across the country to question whether the Trump administration has a right to access our private information and cut our entitlement programs.
Without the power of social media, activists relied on determination, door-to-door outreach, and mass demonstrations to prevent NYS from placing a nuclear waste dump here in rural Allegany County. Their efforts throughout the late 1980s gained a lot of attention, and ultimately the state abandoned the project in 1990. Bump the Dump remains a testament to the power of grassroots activism in Allegany County, inspiring future movements and proving that even a small, rural community can stand up to powerful interests and win! Join us as we learn about this campaign and honor those who boldly stood up for a safer environment here in Allegany County. The day will wrap up with an art build!
