Resistance Radio

Junior Walk is a thirty-four year old anti-coal mining activist from southern West Virginia. Since 2009 Junior has been on the front lines of the fight against mountaintop removal in his community. He has been involved in the use of a diversity of tactics over the years, from getting arrested doing direct action work, to lobbying in D.C., to gathering scientific data and providing standing for lawsuits. These days Junior has had great success in monitoring the coal mine operations in his community to find problems that will end up costing a coal company some money. Junior’s work is supported by the nonprofit Coal River Mountain Watch, to learn more about his work visit CRMW.net
