Rich who own this business will probably be driving ferrari, lamborghini. They will be breathing fresh, eating pure. While poor in this area are just waiting for their turn to get cancer. They see their love once dying through out their life's and can't even visit the cemetery. What a world we live in.

Tafseer Gardezi its true when i began to research oncology i found that most docs will not even do chemo or radiation if they are diagnosed w cancer...they see the uselessness of the accepted treatments and instead practice dietary, environmental and spiritual changes to their life...if one is poor, access to this knowledge and the ability to carry out the necessary steps is almost non-existent

Most of the rich are ignorant and they are dying too, but not in the numbers that the poor and middle class are. The rich are more likely to be science literate and survive. Most of them are as misinformed as the dumbest of the poor.

What a heroic and inspirational man. I believe Heaven will be filled with people like him.

This is sick and deeply saddening. This can't go on!

This isn't the only plant making people who live near it sick. They should have to buy up all land in a one mile radius, at prevailing rates, and pay the health bills of the people they made sick. Furthermore, they should not be able to sell the land or factory, until they clean up their environmental mess. They must make sure there are no water sources in the 1 mile containment area.

Right here in the USA what a damn shame. They really dont care about us at all.

The folks in that town are getting screwed...big time.

A sad way of life/reality and it's so common in the whole stretch between Baton Rouge and New Orleans, every small town/city along that river. I grew up in a small city of Port Allen, LA-West Baton Rouge Parish (just across the Mississippi River from the City of Baton Rouge-East Baton Rouge Parish) and the weather I found, made it hard to breathe especially in summer with the humidity being very high. When you leave you can tell a big difference in air quality. But the parts where whole towns disappear and the only way you can tell it was there was a memorial sign or small cemetery/graveyard. And again, all those that remain you have to have permission to visit your loved ones there. I have relatives and close friends in those that we can't visit with at all, due to plant/refinery security. You have to wait long periods of time for someone to come open the gate to let you in or they won't show up to let you come on the premises. Some just don't let you on the property. And it's nothing that can be done about it.

I learned about this yesterday in class and me and my friends started a padlet called to pitch ideas to stop this. My idea was a petition and I got 43 people to sign already

as someone who has lived here all my life so many people have cancer, my family has been working in plants as long as I've been alive, family members have died frim this but the company is still in business

This is crazy!

I hope more people see this video.

This is absolutely disgusting. Nobody should have to be taunted, endangered, and manipulated by an entity responsible for death of their loved ones.

Great injustice.

It’s a poverty thing, not a race thing. The majority of cities and towns in Louisiana are over 50% black including New Orleans and Baton Rouge. The plants are located because of the river that they need for cooling. It’s not because they are black. What’s worse is that the state offers them tax exemptions to attract the business so the local towns and municipalities get no tax benefit for their presence. The rest of the country treats Louisiana with great disdain and then they are shocked and saddened when they hear the results.

This is just awful. I feel guilty not even knowing about this because of course, our education and economic system will not inform you of this for obvious reasons. I just hope that the kids in that elementary school and in the town as a whole can stand up for themselves against these companies with no morality.

Plane Jane they sure are! Remember, in the 1980s, we called them “cancer clusters,” and on the Illinois side of NW Indiana, we had Joliet, Blue Island, Crestwood, Markham, Midlothian, Robbins, Dixmoor, Dolton, and Harvey. I lived in Whiting for a year, and the stench was unbearable. Corporations literally get away with murder.

This is way too sad.

This my hometown and still live here. We just had a lawsuit claim that came to my job around May 2018. I went to that elementary school when I was in pre-K. I remember having problems breathing and my mom thought I had asthma. The next school year attended a school in the suburbs of New Orleans and I never that problem again.

You take a small documentary on Thoothukudi issue

The bodies are there so they can't be tested on afterwards by loved ones for answers because the factory would be shut down

I really hope they will get retribution for their damages.

These sound worst. But just want to say also they say anyone living within 10 miles of an oil refinery is at higher risk for lymphoma. I live in east Houston and there’s a lot here smh

This seriously can't go on.. shame on the company

This is not a white vs black thing , this is a rich vs poor thing: the thing is most poor people this concerned in that area are black. This is why poor white people should unite with poor black people and fight the system together. Unfortunately the poorest white people get, the more conservative they become .

How sad. Can't even see your deceased relatives because they've fenced it off. Then you get in trouble for trespassing?? I could only imagine the sadness and anguish this man has felt over his life, especially to see most of his family die of cancer. Dupont and all those other companies should be ashamed of themselves, but of course they're not. All they care about is profit an making sure their families are cancer free with clean air. Big corporations run America. Type of country is this???

leave that town! its poison.....damn chem companys….imagine what they do to the river also

I grew up in Reserve, it’s not nor ever had been a black town, but mixed as I am white and all of my many relatives and friends. I can tell you that growing up you couldn’t walk outside at night without breathing in that smell and we lived a good five miles from the plant. I know a friend of the family whose wife died of brain cancer and then a few years later he died of the same kind of brain cancer. I can tell you a whole list of people I know personally that have died of cancer who lived in Reserve and they just are not black. The plant always used to mainly release whatever it was into the air at night, as that is when the smell was the strongest, so bad it could take your breath away.

Honestly, as devastating and wrong it is, I don't see these companies doing anything.

Dupont is a nasty horrible company

This is genocide

Welcome to Red Republican state.

White people always make decisions base on being racist. The white business people and white politicians that came together to decide where to place these poisoning air quality type companies knew exactly what they was doing. White people always come up with creative ways to use black people as human guinea pigs , the history books recorded all the evil deeds and actions white people have continuously did toward there poor black residents from under funding there school and hiring racist white cops to beat and kill them to poisoning there water supply and poisoning there food supply . Now I understand why alot of black people call white people the devil .

The plant was put there by government agreements. So, hold the government accountable...they are living off your taxes. Secondly, how does this plant support the economy of that area. If it were to close down, will that put that community under jeopardy? If so, may as well make plans to leave now... before the plant decides to shut down. Finally, these businesses are open because people are paying for their products. If you don't like these pollutants killing people, don't support the product. It's a supply and demand system. Know where your products are made, and how they are made. Blaming the company for operating may be pointing to every consumer...as they wouldnt be in business, if people were not paying for it. Quit pushing blam on factors, that you can control yourselves. Great episode, thank you.
