Amosite, brown asbestos, was primarily mined in South Africa until about 2002. However, it was known to be highly toxic in the early 1900's and cancerous in the early 1930's. Although there were well documented health risks, it was still mined and used in an endless amount of common materials.
In this episode we speaks with author and human rights lawyer David Kinley. He is the author of "In a Rain of Dust: Death, Deceit, and the Lawyer Who Busted Big Asbestos." It's thr story of how CAPE Plc put workers and their families in harm's way, but it's also the story of how a lawyer named Richard Meeran, was able lead a victory against a large corporation.
