Please join us for a public screening of the new Robert Redford film "Fighting Goliath: Texas Coal Wars".  Followed by a talk by the case's key litigator.
Co-produced by The Redford Center at the Sundance Preserve and Alpheus Media, Fighting Goliath: Texas Coal Wars follows the story of Texans fighting a high-stakes battle for clean air. The film introduces the unlikely partners-mayors, ranchers, CEOs, community groups, legislators, lawyers, and citizens that came together to oppose the construction of 19 conventional coal-fired power plants that were fast-tracked by the Governor and slated to be built in Eastern and Central Texas.
