Louisiana's Cancer Alley was to have been Focus
of Dec. Conference
Exercpt: "In the Mississippi River Chemical
Corridor in Louisiana, better known as “Cancer
Alley"...Over 135 sprawling petrochemical plants
line the 85-miles stretch of the Mississippi
River from Baton Rouge to New Orleans, spewing
hundreds of millions pounds of emission mixtures
into the air, water, and ground to form a “toxic
gumbo.” Zoning ordinances, deed restrictions,
and other land-use mechanisms have been widely
used as a "NIMBY" (not in my backyard) tool,
operating through exclusionary practices. The
“unholy” alliances between government and
industry have created environmental “sacrifice
zones” with African American communities on the
front line of environmental and health assaults.
