Clean Water in America

Clean water in America does not seem like an issue for most people, but to the ones it affects, it is everything.  Many of these areas that have a shortage of clean water can be traced all the way back to 1880 when Jim Crow limits were in full effect.  Studies show that there was a clear discrepancy between the water that black communities received compared to the water that white communities received. Fast forward to today, and these effects still linger, as cities, in southern states in particular, do not have proper access to clean drinking water.  A main question that can be taken away from these issues is, why haven’t state governments done enough to support these cities?  It could be because of a lack of funds, people working on it, or just a lack of effort.
