After a town hall with MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow, Flint’s most famous resident, Michael Moore, asked everybody to stop sending bottled water to the city.
The filmmaker later explained his meaning on Twitter. Bottled water is a short-term solution, and is not the right fix. There’s a better way, Moore explained, to get water to residents in need.
He also asked people who’d like to help to join the protest in Flint instead, to demand accountability and to force the state to immediately replace the city’s lead service lines, for starters.
