Poet, writing teacher, mother, activist, SHARMAN MURPHY reports on the serious health effects she experienced from last year's aerial pesticide spraying of Santa Cruz. She tells of the bureaucratic and medical barriers she encountered in trying to report the pesticide's devastating effects on her. She reflects on the questions: Is the CDFA willing to sacrifice the health of thousands of the Bay Area's chemically sensitive people in response to an unproven risk to California's agriculture industry? What does this say about the values of this society?
