WAITING IN A CESSPOOL
In 1969 the Richmond County Health Department advised residents of Hyde Park their well water was unsafe because of industrial pollution. Four decades later, relocation of the community was finally approved. However, only half of the 130 families have been moved to safety. The video essay, “Waiting in a Cesspool” tells the story of those who have been left behind. Hyde Park residents seek only justice and fulfillment of promises made.

My family grew up here and my grandparents were finally relocated about six or seven years ago; they had lived there for over 30 + years. Richmond County should be sued to death!!!

I grew up out there from birth had NO problems at all!! I truly enjoyed my up bringing and being in a close knotted community I'm blessed to say I have never been tested and proven to have no illnesses of any kinds nor have been poison nor has any of my family members and I believe as well they wanted our community instead of putting purifiers out in the community drains if they thought we was contaminated they did not, the city did not come and help in any way at ALL they wanted us gone so that they can reuse the property for what they want which is exactly what they are doing as we speak. If it was so horrible why not condim the property and use as a recycling area or something like that? Just my opinion...Hyde Park was its own little city other than the bad drainage that the city did nothing about we had 2 play grounds to play in,3 churches, 2 community centers,a elementary schoo,l a car lot, 2 stores, a couple of frozen cup ladies and some candy stores, a family that had a small.farm for as long as they could, a host of families and neighbors that cared about the children. Hyde Park held meetings like no other black neighborhood in Augusta so much that the news always wanted to be there to see what we were discussing, what we was standing for and what we were against. No other neighborhood in Augusta was like it... NOT 1 and it was a predominantly black neighborhood where majority owned a acre of land and I am 1 that is proud to have grown up there, got married left the state came back years later and moved back there and my kids have good memories out there as well..Sooo again I do believe that the city very well did not want us to have our community for their own financial gain and that's just my opinion. But they'll never break our bond🥰
