- W4319952085 abstract "Environmental justice is an increasingly global social movement. The movement is gaining notoriety for the disparities in communities exposed to pollution. The movement is a response to the clarion call to dismantle the systemic remnants of environmental racism that have caused significant air and water contamination. Located along an 85-mile stretch of the Mississippi River, Cancer Alley; is home to over 150 refineries, petrochemical facilities, and industrial plants that release toxic pollution. Adjacent to the Cancer Alley chemical corridor fence line is the community of St. James Parish, Louisiana, District 5, which is 50% Black and 49% Caucasian. 80% of toxic chemical plants are located in District 5 communities that are poorly educated, resource-limited, and Black. The proximity of industry plants to the homes of Black residents exposes residents to toxic chemicals that contaminate the air and water around them. St. James Parish, Louisiana, District 5, is an environmental injustice story. A story reminiscent of David and Goliath, in which history shows that the residents and the community have battled and contested industry and government over toxic pollution. Residents of St. James, Parish, Louisiana, District 5, sought to collaborate with the Parish Council, the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality (LDEQ), and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) about their health problems. Still, the past four years have made no difference. Residents fear that their health and well-being are threatened by daily exposure. This qualitative study will show the industry's lack of accountability and failed agency policies perpetuating inequalities.--Author's abstract" @default.
