A People’s History of Cement
For generations, the coastal town of Davenport, California, slept under a blanket of toxic dust spewed out by its iconic cement plant. Taking both a lyrical and journalistic tone, pushing the lines between fact and fiction—between real and sensational—A People’s History of Cement examines the nostalgia, pride, and pain wrapped up in post-industrial towns, and all the paradoxes inherent in loving the very thing that causes you so much harm.
