The Daniel Pennock Democracy School teaches citizens and activists how to use democratic processes through people's constitutional rights to confront corporate wrongdoing (such as by opposing toxic dumps, quarries, factory farms, etc.). In addition it explores the limits of conventional regulatory organizing and offers a new organizing model that helps citizens confront the usurpation by corporations of the rights of communities, people, and the earth.
It is dedicated to the memory of Daniel Pennock, a 17-year-old boy from Berks County, Pennsylvania, who died in 1995 after being exposed involuntarily to land applied sewage sludge.
