Inside IV: Reflections on 1969 Oil Spill + UCSB Reads

The UCSB Library presents an exhibition to mark the 50th anniversary of the oil spill in the Santa Barbara channel. KCSB's Lisa Osborn speaks with curators Kristen LaBonte and Annie Platoff about "Anguish, Anger and Activism: Legacies of the 1969 Santa Barbara Oil Spill," including student and local reaction and how the disaster spawned the modern environmental movement and the creation of Earth Day.

Then, UCSB's Alex Regan speaks about the 2019 UCSB Reads selection, The Best We Could Do, a graphic novel by Thi Bui, and the events leading up to the author's April appearance at Campbell Hall.
