In one fateful moment, the lives of James Hanover Thompson and David Simpson were forever changed, destroying their childhood innocence and perpetually tying them to “The Kissing Case.”

The “kissing case,” was a case that shined an international spotlight on the bigotry and racial injustice in the South.

Fifty years ago, a shipping error sparked an environmental and economic disaster across the state of Michigan. Instead of a harmless feed additive, Michigan Chemical accidentally sent bags of highly toxic polybrominated biphenyl (PBB) to a Farm Bureau processing facility in Battle Creek.

Thanks to a simple delivery mistake, dairy herds across Michigan were poisoned with PBB in the 1970s. It is estimated that virtually all 9 million people living in Michigan had ingested contaminated meat and milk.
