Ryan Bodanyi:
"I'm involved because I believe in equality, corporate accountability,
and human rights. It's very simple -- if we don't hold Dow accountable
for Bhopal or fight for the value of human life, there will be more
Bhopals, just as surely as the sun will rise tomorrow. If we cannot
win justice for the dead, how can we ensure justice for the living?"
Shiny Mathew:
"I am involved in the Bhopal struggle because the people of
Bhopal have been waiting for justice for far too long and it is
time that corporations, like Union Carbide/Dow Chemical, are held
accountable for their criminal acts and lack of moral and ethical
responsibility. We all need to fight together for a just and equitable
society, where every human life is respected and valued."
Samip Mallick:
"Being involved in the struggle and learning more about what
happened in Bhopal in 1984 and since then has taught me about how
much violence is committed against our bodies on a daily basis because
of toxic chemicals that exist in all of our surroundings. This struggle,
for me, is about saying "Stop! No more!" I refuse to accept
that ridiculously high rates of cancer, weakened immune systems
and birth defects are part of the price that we pay for shampoos
and saran wrap."
